All federal employees should seek this designation when they plan for their financial wellbeing.
ChFEBC℠ means Chartered Federal Employee Benefits Consultant. A ChFEBC℠ has a thorough understanding of CSRS and FERS retirement annuities, the Thrift Savings Plan (TSP), Federal Employee Group Life Insurance (FEGLI) and other benefits that only federal government workers may have.
A ChFEBC℠ has devoted hours of course study and self-education to master federal benefits and their effective application. Different from other designations, a ChFEBC℠ must be retested annually. Things change and your advisor must be continually current. A ChFEBC℠ may have additional designations and registrations, but the ChFEBC℠ designation is unique to financial factors that affect only you. ChFEBC℠ study mitigates the steep learning curve that other advisors must conquer.
ChFEBC℠ requires highly specialized education in CSRS and FERS annuities and the different rules that apply to CSRS Offset and FERS Transferees, Special Provision FERS like air traffic controllers, law enforcement officers, reservists, and firefighters. This education extends to your FEGLI options, your FEHB (medical plan) options, the Thrift Savings Plan, long-term care, Social Security eligibility and choices, and to the individual concerns of survivor benefits and eligibility of children with special needs. A ChFEBC℠ training goes beyond facts, rules, and constructions. It includes discovering the right mix of information to guide your unique and personal circumstances. You, the federal employee, are the reason for all this learning. It must serve you and your needs, first and foremost.
It isn’t easy to be eligible to earn the ChFEBC℠ designation. First a professional must have a minimum of three years of experience in the financial industry, be a fiduciary and have a thorough knowledge of insurance, benefits planning, retirement planning, estate law, or personal accounting. Next there is a background review with FINRA (Financial Industry Regulatory Authority) and SEC (Securities Exchange Commission) to assure that our professional has the appropriate registrations. Any findings that prove questionable integrity become disqualifiers. The purpose of this extensive scrutiny is to assure that you receive objective guidance that is in your best interest. A ChFEBC℠ must earn and validate your trust and respect in every facet of the relationship. Snow Federal Retirement Seminars & ChFEBC℠, LLC enforces the highest integrity among the professionals we designate.
