I don't want to ask you for all the information you put in, but my rough estimate comes out to much more than that (in 2040 dollars).Response by LTC Private RallyPoint Member made Jul 1 at 2015 8:41 PM2015-07-01T20:41:49-04:002015-07-01T20:41:49-04:00MSgt Keith Hebert784579<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>very likely it is correct. <br />You have to remember that even in the reserves/NG retirement is based on points <br />60 points a year <br />6 years = 360 points/ 1 year AD<br />that is a normal year <br />I had a CMSGT retire with 20 years and only get about $800 <br />So print out your points and break out the 214's and make sure you have all your pointsResponse by MSgt Keith Hebert made Jul 1 at 2015 8:43 PM2015-07-01T20:43:20-04:002015-07-01T20:43:20-04:00LTC Gavin Heater784623<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>1SG Blount: I am sure you used the site properly, but just in case, run your numbers again and make sure every entry saves. I ran my numbers and the calculation matches other of my recent estimates.

Make sure you get all of your points accounted for. Another thing, if you retire before age 60, go retired reserve, if not retired pay will be based off of date retired. Good luckResponse by SFC Kenneth Hunnell made Jul 1 at 2015 9:11 PM2015-07-01T21:11:21-04:002015-07-01T21:11:21-04:00LTC John Shaw784670<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div><a class="dark-link bold-link" role="profile-hover" data-qtip-container="body" data-id="104534" data-source-page-controller="question_response_contents" href="/profiles/104534-1sg-michael-blount">1SG Michael Blount</a> I can assist. <br />The site you have listed is one of the correct sites for HRC Retired Reserve calculators.<br />This one only provides dollars in current day, you can go to one through your HRC account that will provide an estimate at age 60, when reservist are allowed to receive retirement. <br />In your Records file off the 2x citizen/HRC site you can get your total retirement point count.<br />If you can't determine it from my comments, ping me via message and I will assist.Response by LTC John Shaw made Jul 1 at 2015 9:21 PM2015-07-01T21:21:36-04:002015-07-01T21:21:36-04:00COL Jon Thompson784763<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Your pension will be based on the number of points so the more active duty you have done, the more it will be vs. someone of the same grade but with less points. Make sure every point is accounted for by HRC. Also, if you have done any mobilizations since January 2008, your retirement will start 90 days earlier for every 90 days you have done. I just got my reserve retirement ID card last week and the DEERS lady told me to contact HRC a year out from my retirement so HRC can cut the final orders. Without those, you will not get Tricare.Response by COL Jon Thompson made Jul 1 at 2015 9:54 PM2015-07-01T21:54:54-04:002015-07-01T21:54:54-04:00SSG Robert Blair784850<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>1SG<br />Definitely make sure you have every point you deserve first.
