Sec. 1650.23  Accounts of less than $200.

    Upon receiving information from the employing agency that a 
participant has been separated for more than 31 days and that any 
outstanding loans have been closed, the TSP record keeper will send the 
participant a check for the entire amount of his or her account balance 
if the account balance is $5.00 or more but less than $200. The 
participant may not elect to leave this amount in the TSP, nor will the 
TSP transfer this amount to an eligible employer plan or traditional 
IRA, or pay it by EFT. However, the participant may elect to roll over 
this payment into an eligible employer plan or traditional IRA.
