A discussion explores whether VERA and VSIP will be available in 2025. These voluntary programs help federal employees retire early or receive financial incentives for leaving their jobs. Their availability depends on agency restructuring, budget constraints, and workforce needs. Past trends show they are often used during economic downturns. Employees are encouraged to review retirement benefits, seek financial guidance, and stay informed about agency decisions. Being proactive ensures they are prepared if these opportunities arise. With proper planning, federal workers can navigate transitions smoothly and make informed career decisions should VERA and VSIP become available next year.
