PART 839_CORRECTION OF RETIREMENT COVERAGE ERRORS UNDER THE FEDERAL 
ERRONEOUS RETIREMENT COVERAGE CORRECTIONS ACT--Table of Contents
 
  Subpart J_Lost Earnings for Certain Make-up Contributions to the TSP
 
Sec. 839.1001  Does the FERCCA allow me to increase my TSP account if 
I was in CSRS during my qualifying retirement coverage error and my 
correct coverage will 
          be FERS?


    The Board's error correction regulations (5 CFR 1605 of chapter VI) 
generally allow you to increase your TSP account through a schedule of 
make-up contributions to replace the missed employee contributions. In 
addition, the FERCCA allows certain employees who have completed a 
schedule of make-up contributions, or who plan to schedule make-up 
contributions, to receive lost earnings on those contributions under 
certain circumstances. Employees are (and have been) entitled to lost 
earnings on the make-up agency contributions they receive as a result of 
the correction of an agency error.
