Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill covers people who received a tentative job offer as a U.S. Customs and Border Protection Officer before July 6, 2008, and started work on or after that date because of that offer. It would treat them as if they were serving as officers on July 6, 2008, for retirement rules, giving them a minimum annuity amount and an exemption from mandatory retirement. Within 120 days, the Department of Homeland Security would list and notify these individuals and send their information to the Office of Personnel Management, which would correct their annuities, including back adjustments for those already retired. The Government Accountability Office would review how the agency decides eligibility for enhanced retirement benefits and report to Congress within 18 months.
