Testimony - Retirement Process Transitioning to the ORA Portal
- "When I began my retirement journey, I was honestly overwhelmed. The High 3 Team has individually prepared retirement packages for others at my Agency and elsewhere. My entire retirement package was prepared and presented to me by High 3 Team for review, signature, and submission. I mailed it through USPS, thinking it was all set, but unfortunately, the entire package was lost in the mail. It was a stressful setback, and I wasn’t sure what to do next.
- Thankfully, the High 3 Team didn’t miss a beat. They quickly helped me recreate the entire package, and this time I sent it via UPS, which finally got it to the right place. Just as I thought things were finally back on track, I was informed that FEMA had started transitioning into a new system, the Online Retirement Application portal and all support documents now had to be uploaded online.
- Once again, the High 3 Team came through. They stepped up and handled the uploading of all my documents into the ORA portal, making what could’ve been another stressful situation into a smooth and simple process. Their guidance and hands-on help made a world of difference.
- Now that I’ve experienced both methods, I can say the ORA portal is a much more efficient and reliable way to process retirement. It eliminates the risk of your paperwork getting lost in the mail, and it allows you to track everything online. What started out with frustration and uncertainty turned into a smooth and successful retirement process, all thanks to the incredible support from Mark Brown, the High 3 Team."
