FERS Annuitants Must Report Earnings
If you are a Federal Employees' Retirement System (FERS) annuitant who is not retired on disability and are under age 62, OPM will use form RI 92-22 to collect your annual earned income to decide whether you can continue receiving the annuity supplement. The annuity supplement is subject to an earnings limitation and stops at age 62.

OPM estimates 13,000 respondents will complete the Annuity Supplement Earnings Report (RI 92-22), with an estimated 15 minutes per respondent and a total of 3,250 burden hours. OPM is accepting public comments on this information collection through May 8, 2026.
