How does LWOP affect my Thrift Savings Plan (TSP)?
Since you are not receiving pay while on LWOP, you would not be contributing additional monies into your TSP account. The funds would remain in their accounts. If you move while on LWOP, notify your Customer Service Representative who will in turn advise the Thrift Savings Board. The Board will not take this information directly from an employee who is still on agency rolls. For further information, contact www.tsp.gov.
