The New York City Deferred Compensation Plan (DCP) allows eligible New York City employees a way to save for retirement through convenient payroll deductions. DCP is comprised of two programs: a 457 Plan and a 401(k) Plan, both of which offer pre-tax and Roth (after-tax) options.
Distribution of earnings from the Roth 457 and 401(k) Plan before age 59½ or for a period shorter than five taxable years are subject to all applicable income taxes (Roth 401(k) distribution is also subject to penalties).
While you may be looking to contribute your entire paycheck to your 401(k), required federal and state withholding typically prevents you from doing so. As a result, the highest rate of compensation you may be able to defer for pre-tax contributions is 92.35% for most states.
The annual contribution limit for employees who participate in 401(k), 403(b), governmental 457 plans, and the federal government's Thrift Savings Plan is increased to $23,500, up from $23,000. The limit on annual contributions to an IRA remains $7,000.
Contributions • 2025 annual limit of $23,500; $31,000 if age 50 or older; $34,750 annual limit applies for participants who attain ages 60, 61, 62 and 63 ($31,000 at age 64 or older) • 2025 annual limit of $23,500; $31,000 if age 50 or older; $34,750 annual limit applies for participants who attain ages 60, 61, 62 and ...

The 401(k) and the 457 are retirement plans offered by employers to their employees to save for retirement. They are similar in almost every way with a few distinctions, the primary one being that 401(k)s are offered by private employers while 457 plans are offered by local governments and some non-profits.
As always, you can speak with a Deferred Compensation Plan Customer Service Representative about the Plan and your account(s) on the phone by calling at (212) 306-7760, 9am to 5pm, Monday through Friday, except holidays.
