Ohio Business Gateway Users: Prepare for 2-Step Verification

Adopt our Roth 457(b) Option

Adopting the Roth 457(b) option gives your employees the freedom of choice to make either pre-tax or Roth post-tax contributions to meet their individual financial circumstances. Roth contributions are not tax deductible but provide tax-free distributions after certain conditions are met. Annual contribution limits apply to both pre-tax and post-tax contributions. Employers will need to set up a separate post-tax deduction for Roth contributions in their payroll systems.

Please consider adopting the Roth 457(b) option by completing Exhibit B of the Adoption Agreement. For additional information about the benefits of a Roth 457(b) account, please review the Ohio DC Roth Contributions Brochure or contact us at 877-644-6457.
