Not All Federal Government Agencies Process Disability Retirement Applications The Same
Not all federal government agencies process disability retirement applications in the same manner. The U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) has a standard procedure for federal government employees seeking disability retirement.
However, each federal agency is required to provide employment information for the application to be processed by the OPM. Employees of the IRS, U S Postal Service, Homeland Security, etc. have vastly different practices when an employee seeks proper employment information from the employing agency.
It is helpful to seek guidance from each agency Human Resources office in starting the disability retirement process.
