Instructions for Rollover to the Federal Retirement Thrift Savings Plan
The Thrift Savings Plan (TSP) will not accept non-taxable (post-tax) monies. You must have an open TSP account. Before the Office of
Personnel Management (OPM) can complete a rollover to your TSP account, you must sign and submit Form TSP-60, Request for a
Transfer Into the TSP, to OPM. Submit both the TSP-60 and this form at the same time. OPM will complete its portion of the TSP-60 and
fax it to the Thrift Savings office for processing. The form must be approved by the Federal Retirement Thrift Investment Board and the
Board must notify OPM to transfer the funds. This process can take two to three weeks. Form TSP-60 is available on the internet at
http://www.tsp.gov/forms.
