i was sent an retirement election form in may 2004 in which i had to elect my retirement.
the lettrer stated that i was eligible for retirement and that i should choose. so i chose owcp. workmans comp retirement. so how is it a year later they can try and make me go back to work. it is documented that i will never improve. i am confused.
