Last week I wrote about the age and service requirements needed to retire. This time I want review the most common kinds of service that are considered creditable for retirement purposes. As a rule, creditable service means service in which your pay is subject to CSRS or FERS retirement deductions. However, creditable service may also include:
1 A Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) employee (generally if you were hired before January 1, 1984 and did not convert to FERS), or. 2  A member of the uniformed services (active duty or Ready Reserve), or.  A civilian in certain other categories of Government service.
