Office of Personnel Management Announces eOPF Upgrades
Targeted News Service |
RANDOLPH AFB,
The OPM eOPF is a secure electronic personnel folder which provides civilian employees virtual access to their personnel records. This includes notifications of personnel actions and benefit election documentation such as Thrift Saving Plan contributions, life insurance, and health benefits.
"This upgrade provides substantially improved navigation, "said
"Ultimately, we're all responsible for managing our own future and professional development. Ensuring our records are correct will help us achieve our professional goals," he said.
To help employees do that, AFPC sends all employees an annual email reminder during their birth month.
To create an eOPF account, log in to myPers at https://mypers.af.mil. Select ' Career Management' under 'Learn More About.' Select 'Self Service,' then 'Accessing your Electronic Personnel Folder' and follow the instructions.
Employees must have a valid work email address in the eOPF in order to create their user account. The eOPF email data field is updated from the employee's email address in MyBiz. Therefore, employees should check their MyBiz email address to make sure it's accurate. To do that, go to https://compo.dcpds.cpms.osd.mil/. It takes approximately 24 hours for MyBiz email updates to flow to the eOPF.
The eOPF can only be accessed from a government or military computer network. The eOPF and MyBiz are secure applications, so employees do not need to worry about their data being compromised, Zedek said.
"Using the myPers self-service applications and the eOPF puts employees' personnel information at their fingertips," Zedek said. "They can now complete actions that previously took an inordinate amount of time out of their day with the click of a mouse."
Employees can initiate requests for corrective action for certain eOPF errors or omissions such as date of birth correction, name change, and social security number correction.
To learn more about self-service updates, visit the myPers self-service page, accessible via the home page "I would like to" section.
For questions about accessing MyBiz, contact the A1 Service Help Desk at Commercial (210) 565-0102, DSN: 665-0102; choose Option 8, then Option 2, and then Option 1.
