Retirement Processing System (RETM)

Print RETM Card

Print RETM Card is the third option on the Agency Tracking Menu. This option is used to print a paper version of the Individual Retirement Record, SF 2806/SF 3100. The Individual Retirement Record can be generated for employees at any time during their employment. A sample of an SF 3100 is provided as Exhibit 1 to this procedure. NFC generates the official Individual Retirement Record (a hardcopy printed on card stock) that is sent to OPM.

The SF 2806/SF 3100 depicts information regarding retirement contributions. Therefore, time worked by employees under an appointment not contributing to retirement would not be shown on the SF 2806/SF 3100. Also, for Departments converting to NFC's Payroll/Personnel System, deductions depicted on the SF 2806/SF 3100 begin at the time of conversion.

USDA Agencies that converted to NFC's Payroll/Personnel System have the remarks, Brought Forward, displayed under Fiscal Record on the paper version SF 2806/SF 3100. Brought Forward indicates the employee's previous retirement contributions before conversion.
