SSgt Private RallyPoint Member 3744713 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I have a fairly unique situation and am looking for any guidance or recommendations. I tried the Office of Personnel Management with no clear answer. I will retire as a FERS employee and bought back 7 years of active service towards my pension. I know I cannot collect 2 pensions active and fed civilian, I have read that under Title 32 I can collect a civilian and National Guard pension. I wanted to verify this and that my 7 years will count towards my Guard pension. Thanks for any assistance. Can I collect both a civilian and a National Guard pension? How will any bought back time count? 2018-06-26T14:44:57-04:00 SSgt Private RallyPoint Member 3744713 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I have a fairly unique situation and am looking for any guidance or recommendations.

KEEP records. I had to prove I bought back my first six years of Active duty. If you go active, such as deployment, but that back. I am retired from FERs program.
