Retirement credit for service of certain employees transferred from District of Columbia service to Federal service
Section 1905 is a new and unique provision under CSRS and FERS. It affects certain specified service performed in District of Columbia positions that were subsequently brought under Federal benefits, and that was not previously creditable under CSRS or FERS. Such specified service will now be creditable for retirement eligibility purposes only, including specified service being creditable towards law enforcement officer retirement eligibility. However, such service will NOT be creditable in the computation of annuity benefits.
Credit for such service will be based upon certification of the appropriate personnel official of the government of the District of Columbia or other independent employing entity concerning whether an individual performed qualifying District of Columbia service and the length of the period of such service the individual performed. Individuals will be eligible for credit only if they are employed under CSRS or FERS on or after October 28, 2009.
