In filing an application for Federal Disability Retirement benefits under FERS or CSRS, it is important to keep in mind the differing and different perspectives that are involved in the entire process — including (but not limited to) the Agency’s perspective, the doctor’s, the view from the Office of Personnel Management; and not the least of which, is the perpective of the Applicant.
Out of all of the differing and different perspectives, while the applicant may have some persuasive input on the others, there is only one perspective where one has full control and authority over — that of the applicant filing for Federal Disability Retirement benefits under FERS or CSRS.
Thus, with that in mind, the applicant has various choices — to select a tone, demeanor and approach on a wide spectrum where on the one side is the “purely subjective” and on the extreme other side is the “purely objective” (assuming, of course, that there is such an animal as that called “purely objective”). This has to do with the tone of the application, which will influence the content to some extent. More discussion later.
Sincerely,
Robert R. McGill, Esquire

Is there age cut-off for applying for CSRS disability
retirement? I was told I can not apply if over the age of 62.
If so, does the same rule apply to FERS employees?
