What Is MSRRA and how
does it work? (EDD Box #3)
– On November 11, 2009, the Military Spouses Residency Relief Act (MSRRA)
was enacted to extend certain protections to military spouses. Pursuant to
the MSRRA, a military spouse who is present with a member in a particular
State under military orders does not have to pay State income taxes on wages
earned in that State as long as that State is not the spouse’s legal residence or
domicile.
– The MSRRA does not allow a spouse to pick or choose a domicile in any State.
Rather, domicile is established, which means that the spouse must have
actually been present in the State, established it as his or her domicile, and
maintained it by forming and maintaining the necessary contacts, such as
registering to vote, owning property, registering vehicles, or indicating a State
of probate in a last will and testament. Members and their spouses may seek
free, confidential advice from a military legal assistance office if they have any
questions.

Prior Military Entitlements
MILITARY BUY BACK
• If you served in the military and now hold a civilian position, your military
time may apply toward your civil service retirement. To buy back your
military service, you will have to pay a deposit, (in most cases 3% of your
base pay earned during your military service if you are FERS, 7% if you are
CSRS.
• Interest - If the deposit is paid in full within the first 3 years of Federal
civilian employee, no interest is owed. If you have been a Federal civilian
employee for more than 3 years, you can still pay the deposit, but you will
owe interest. The sooner you pay the deposit the less interest you will
have to pay, so the sooner you pay the deposit the better.
• **The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) now requires Military
Service Deposits be paid in full before your date of separation or
retirement.
Since processing time can take up to 6 months, this is not something you
can do at the last minute.
