Bill overview
The FORWARD Act allows certain retired or disabled members of the uniformed services to contribute to the Thrift Savings Plan (TSP) after they’ve separated from active duty. Specifically, it extends contribution eligibility to former members receiving retired pay under Title 10 or receiving 100% disability compensation under Title 38, provided they are not currently employed. The bill requires the Thrift Savings Fund to establish regulations to implement these changes within 180 days of enactment. This aims to provide financial security for veterans and their families.
