That happens every year with my Civil Service Pension. I get the cost of living raise in January check but then my Blue Cross premium increase takes effect with February payment making February's check smaller than January's.

Her retirement payment at the end of January was $41 less. Something is going on here.

I hope you get some answers. I don't think whatever they have done or are doing would affect it so quickly but I could be wrong. I advise to call the relevant people, if they have not been fired etc. and ask about this.
