Blended Retirement System:
Service members will be able to choose their retirement plans starting Jan. 1, 2018.
The military retirement system is changing on January 1, 2018. If you are in the Active Component with less than 12 years of service or in the National Guard or Reserve with less than 4,320 retirement points as of Dec. 31, 2017, you will be faced with an important financial decision to make between January 1 and December 31, 2018: remain in the current retirement plan or opt into the new Blended Retirement System?
