TSP Rollover to an IRA: 5 Critical Issues (And Why You Should Consider a 'Hybrid' Rollover)

Many federal employees wonder if they should keep their funds entirely in the Thrift Savings Plan (TSP) or opt for a full IRA transfer upon retirement. However, a balanced approach to federal retirement planning often yields better results than an all-or-nothing strategy. Making the wrong decision in your retirement planning can lead to significant tax implications or restrict access to your funds when needed.
