Hi all! Question for you about all of this fun paperwork. I submitted everything but these two pieces. I wasn't sure about direct deposit because I'm assuming we'll have to change banks when we get there. Did you all just go ahead with the direct deposit form for your current bank for now?

Also, I'm looking through the stack of paperwork to designate your beneficiary for FERS, FEGLI, and TSP...am I understanding this correctly that if I'm fine with the standard plan (it goes to my spouse) I don't need to do any of that paperwork?
onthemove You don't necessarily need to change banks. I recall there being Bank of America (or some subset of it) being on the bases. I joined Navy Federal once there and just electronically moved money between them and my Bank of America account as needed.

Bett I was told we can fill the beneficiary stuff out and bring with us to our new school. I'm not sure if that's correct though.

oregonslp Oh good! I hope you're right, Bett, because some of that stuff is a little confusing to me and it'd be nice to have someone to discuss it with.
