How much does it cost to participate in the TSP program?
The Federal government does not charge for TSP. Your vendor may have a tariff charge for TSP. The charge normally varies by telecommunications service provider and depends on the number of lines covered. Typically, service providers have a one-time charge for each line selected as well as a monthly per-line charge. The one-time charge for a local line is approximately $100; the monthly per-line charge is approximately $3. Each service provider has its own price list; therefore, a user must consult with its service provider in order to determine its cost for TSP coverage.
