Self-Service Payroll Information for Retirees and Annuitants

Since 2006, retirees and annuitants of the Commissioned Corps of the U.S. Public Health Service (Corps) have had access to self-service technology to retrieve their statements of earnings and deductions. The Corps continued to mail paper statements on a monthly basis. In an effort to reduce costs to the taxpayers, and use more modern technology, effective 1 July 2010, the monthly mailings will be discontinued.

Consistent with the other uniformed services, the Corps will only provide a paper statement of earnings and deductions when there is a change in the net pay to a retiree or annuitant. In most cases, this will be an annual mailing when there is a cost of living increase. However, retirees and annuitants will receive a paper statement of earnings and deductions when there is a change in something like Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Compensation, Concurrent Retirement and Disability Pay (CRDP), tax withholding, garnishments, TRICARE premiums, or other similar items that result in a change of net pay.

A user ID and password is needed to access your information. The Corps provided this information to retirees and annuitants in the past. Please contact the Commissioned Corps Helpdesk at 301-594-0961 or cchelpdesk@psc.gov for assistance with accessing your information or to obtain your user ID and password.
