tsp loan question
I took out a tsp residential loan a couple years ago and I still have about $25000 yet to pay. If I quit my job and find another one in the private sector, then I have 90 days to pay the $25000 in full. Is this correct?
Nobody knows what the market is going to do in the future. Stop asking. Just shut up and follow strategy #72033 to glory.
Re: tsp loan question
Not sure about residential, but I had a general loan balance when I retired from active duty. There was some time to pay it off before the balance (or full loan amount?) was taxed (and penalized?) It's been 11 years, so it's all a little fuzzy.
Re: tsp loan question
The following is from page 20 of the "Summary of the Thrift Savings Plan" which can be viewed at www.tsp.gov "Consequences of failing to repay your loan. If you fail
to repay your loan in accordance with your Loan Agreement
(or your most recent reamortization), or you do
not repay your loan when you separate from service, the
TSP will report a taxable distribution to the IRS. You
will owe income taxes on the taxable amount of the
outstanding balance of the loan and possibly an early
withdrawal penalty tax."
If you can not find the exact answer you are looking for, give the TSP people a call at 1-877-968-3778
Good luck!

Re: tsp loan question
Yes, you have 90 day period to repay loan before it becomes a taxable distribution. See "Leaving Federal Service" https://www.tsp.gov/PlanParticipation/L ... ralService
Re: tsp loan question
Also; "Until the loan is closed, you will not be able to make a withdrawal". This is probably more important for those that are retiring and wanting to withdraw their TSP funds via a single payment, series of monthly payments, or a life annuity.

Well that sucks. Guess I shouldn't apply for that awesome job, then.

Just ask the hiring manager for a $25k starting bonus.
Re: tsp loan question
You should apply!
I like Miketurk's suggestion & just don't quit until you actually have that awesome job with a confirmed start date.
