Thrift Savings Plan Updates Loan Payment Rules for Clarity
Published Date: 4/18/2025
Proposed Rule
Summary
If you have a loan with the Thrift Savings Plan, this new rule changes how your payments get split when your loan is reamortized. Instead of paying all the old interest first, your unpaid interest will now be added to your loan balance, making payments simpler and clearer. This update affects anyone with a TSP loan and will start once the rule is official, potentially changing how much you pay each month.
