No Early Withdrawal Penalty and a $50 Bonus!

The main difference between a 401(k) and a 457 is the age at which you can access your funds without limitation or penalty. A 457 plan is available the day you leave the job regardless of your age and there is no early withdrawal penalty. And the good news is: Start or increase your deferral to the 457 by 1% and get a $50 bonus to your account. It's as easy as that. To enroll, call 342-8657 or get the enrollment form from your payroll department. NEW: Hear what your coworkers have to say about the 457 plan.

PERSI: Withdrawing Funds

There are many reasons people consider tapping into their retirement accounts, especially during tough economic times.

In response to numerous inquiries, PERSI prepared a document to explain the options available to members who may be leaving PERSI-covered employment.
