Retiree Account Statement
Your Retiree Account Statement (RAS) is a two-page document issued by DFAS that summarizes your pay, benefits and deductions at a specific point in time. It is a description of what you can expect on the next pay date. Understanding your RAS is an important first step in managing your retirement pay.![](https://webarchive.library.unt.edu/web/20130215183740im_/http://www.dfas.mil/dms/dfas/rapay/images/eRASlogo.jpg)
In addition to the monthly eRAS, all retirees receive a RAS whenever you make a change to your account and an annual RAS each December.

Reading Your RAS
Once you've obtained a copy of your RAS, it's important that you know what everything that's included on it means to you. Keep in mind that your statement may not contain information in every field - only those that apply to your pay at the time your RAS is issued.Understanding Your RAS, Page 1
