Federal Retirement
The federal retirement planning process involves you ensuring that the money you have earned works to your highest advantage.  This financial planning process requires looking at all aspects impacting your federal retirement from how much money is needed in retirement to where will you live.  Once you retire, deciding on where to live in retirement is a big factor in the quality of life that live in retirement. Finding ways to save money is important and the taxes that you pay in retirement is going to be important to you in ways difficult to overstate. Let’s look at some States that exempt taxes on federal retirement annuities. States are prohibited from giving more favorable tax considerations to local and state pensions than they give to federal pensions.
