What are the advantages of participating in the North Texas School District Consortium 457(b) FICA Alternative Plan?
The contribution to the North Texas School District Consortium 457(b) FICA Alternative Plan will be deducted from your paycheck on a pre-tax basis, so you are not taxed on the gross amount. Funds remain tax-sheltered until they are withdrawn. Unlike Social Security withholding, if your employment with your District ends, you may withdraw funds subject to the Internal Revenue Code distribution guidelines under a 457(b) Deferred Compensation Plan.
