It is bad enough they decided to take money and put it in TSP, it is the second time they have done it of their own accord.

It was my understanding that those that people that people went into DFAS and opted to do the BRS or take no action and stay with the standard retirement plan. You may want to give DFAS a call and find out what is going on.

You need to contact DFAS first thing in the morning and sort this thing out! Otherwise you’ll end up shafted.

So you are upset that they are putting money into a retirement fund for you. You are also upset that they are matching what they are putting in there.

When did you join? If it was 2 years or more TIS you should be grandfathered into traditional if you did not opt into BRS. I’d call DFAS ASAP to verify - good luck!

Just go onto Mypay and it will tell you what retirement you are in, it's also on your LES.
