eOPF

Review and save all personnel history documents in your eOPF prior to your separation date.

myPay

Get your last Leave and Earnings Statement (LES), your W-2, and review your lump sum annual leave payment from myPay. You will have access to myPay for up to one year after separation. After you separate, you will no longer be able to log in with your PIV card; instead, you will need to use your username and password.
