The Deferred Compensation Program is a supplemental retirement savings program you control. The Washington State Department of Retirement Systems (DRS) administers this 457(b) plan, which is similar to a 401(k) or 403(b) that many employers offer. Over 100,000 Washington public employees have saved with DCP.
You can't borrow from an IRA, and early withdrawals could incur taxes and penalties.
Please know that your assets that started and grew in your regular Plan account or were rolled over from another 457 deferred compensation plan are not eligible for a withdrawal until you leave public service, become age 59 1/2, or are needed for an unforeseeable emergency withdrawal.
The Plan differs from other defined contribution retirement plans (like a 401(k) or 403(b)), because it is designed and managed with public employees in mind. The New York State Deferred Compensation Board establishes and administers the Plan policies.
Upon severance from City service, or upon reaching age 59½, participants can begin receiving distributions at any time by either accessing their account online or submitting a Distribution Form to the Plan's Administrative Office. Participants can change or stop distributions at any time.
