Using OPM’s Retirement Services Online

The Office of Personnel Management provides special access for federal retirees to manage their annuity payment information, federal and state tax withholding, tax forms, and other benefits at Retirement Services Online (SOL) at www.servicesonline.opm.gov

You can use this website if you receive benefits as an annuitant or survivor under the Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS), Federal Employees Retirement System (FERS) or FERS Special, or the Organization Retirement and Disability System (ORDS).

Retirement Services Online provides retirement services on demand, including:

• Annuity statements
• 1099-Rs
• Tax withholdings
• Direct deposit changes
• Contact information
• Life insurance (FEGLI) verification

Without logging in, you can report these events to OPM:

• Death of annuitant – Report the death of a retiree or survivor annuitant who is currently receiving a benefit from OPM.
• Missing Payment – Report a missing annuity payment for a retired Federal employee or their survivor.
• Death of federal employee – Federal personnel or payroll officers can use this form to report a widow or widower who may be eligible for recurring monthly payments under CSRS or FERS.
