CFC Request BUT Disability Retirement in Reconsideration Phase
Disability Retirement
The federal government allows employees who are unable to work to retire under a disability
retirement. It is in the best interest of both employees and the federal government for employees to remain gainfully employed in their current grade or pay level, as long as they can provide useful and efficient service without endangering themselves, others or government property. Disability retirement should be the very last option and should be used only when attempts have been made to preserve an individual's employment, and those attempts have failed.

Below is an email I received today from OPM Retirement Services. I haven't been approved for disability retirement. My case is currently pending at reconsideration. Has anyone every received a letter/email like this from OPM before approval? The part that has me confused is "....federal retirees like you..." thanks!

Well at least you know OPM has a working email for you! Maybe it's a good sign getting this letter, we all get it. I got a new BCBS card during reconsideration 8 months before approval. I thought it was funny as it was for family coverage, I don't have a family. OPM then charged me $10,000 for their health, well tried to anyway.
