Reduced retirement age — one page

  • After 28 January 2008, qualifying active duty in 90-day blocks can knock three months off age 60.
  • Floor is 50. Weekend drill and most annual training do not count.
  • HRC / the official points record is the authority, not a spreadsheet.
  • TRR ends when retired pay starts. TFL is still the Medicare Part B door at 65.
  • This is an educational estimate. Confirm qualifying days before you budget.
