NOAA/ PHS retired Payslips

Payslips are automatically generated as part of the overall payroll process and no NOAA or PHS retiree payments were made due to no funding.

RETIRED PAY 

PPC is addressing a processing delay due to systematic issues and a shortage of personnel. This is causing a delay in response efforts for VA offsets, AEWs, CRDP, and CRSC disability. You remain our primary concern. We want to assure you that we are fully committed to resolving these issues promptly and handling your cases with utmost care and accuracy.

Warrant Officers (CWOs) and reserve enlisted members shall be removed from
an active status after completion of 30 years total time in service (TIS).
Total TIS is computed using a member's pay entry base date.
2. This message details reserve personnel who will complete 30 years TIS
on or before 30 September 2026 as well as those reserve personnel
previously approved for 30-year TIS waivers that expire on or before
30 September 2026. These members will receive a reserve component category
change to the Inactive Status List (ISL) effective the day after they
complete 30 years TIS or the date their current waiver expires, unless they
submit a request for transfer to a retired status. Retirement transfer
requests shall be submitted to CG PSC-RPM-1 on CG Form 2055A, through the
chain of command, no less than 100 days and up to one year prior to the
requested retirement date. The latest version of the CG-2055A may be found

The requested retirement date must not exceed the first of the month
following attainment of the respective effective date. Reservists who have

the member performs qualifying active duty on or after 28 January 2008. 
Members are encouraged to visit the CG PPC (ADV) website to review
guidance on how to calculate early RET-1 transfer eligibility:
https://www.dcms.uscg.mil/ppc/adv/points/. To request an early retirement
calculation, members should select both RET-2 and Early RET-1 options in
block 8 of the CG-2055A. Upon receipt of early RET-1 calculations, members
from the CG PSC-RPM-1 Status section will forward early RET-1 calculations
to the unit for further discussion on eligibility and transfer options.
5. Units identifying a critical Service need may submit a waiver request to
CG PSC-RPM-1 to retain their member identified above in an active status
beyond the identified date. The waiver request must be in standard CG memo
format, include the exact dates requested, a description of the specific
Service need, the transition plan to alleviate the need for a waiver at the
end of the requested period, steps taken to identify candidates not requiring
a waiver, and a completed CG-2055A in the event the request is denied to
alleviate any delay in retirement processing. Submit complete waiver requests
100 days prior to the member completing 30 years of TIS to:
HQS-SMB-CGPSC-RPM-1-WAIVER@uscg.mil.
