Description

Deferred compensation is an arrangement in which a portion of an employee's income is paid out at a date after which the income is actually earned. A Deferred Compensation Agreement is a contractual agreement in which an employee (or independent contractor) agrees to be paid in a future year for services rendered. Deferred compensation payments generally commence upon termination of employment (e.g., retirement) or death or disability before retirement. These agreements are often geared toward anticipated retirement in order to provide cash payments to the retiree and to defer taxation to a year when the recipient is in a lower bracket. Although the employer's contractual obligation to pay the deferred compensation is typically unsecured, the obligation still constitutes a contractual promise.

FAQ

The Minnesota Deferred Compensation 457(b) Plan (MNDCP) is a voluntary retirement savings plan (similar to a 401(k) or 403(b) available to any full-time, part-time, or temporary Minnesota public employee (state, city, county, township, school district, etc.).

A 457(b) plan's annual contributions and other additions (excluding earnings) to a participant's account cannot exceed the lesser of: 100% of the participant's includible compensation, or. the elective deferral limit ($23,000 in 2024; $22,500 in 2023; $20,500 in 2022; $19,500 in 2020 and in 2021).

Generally, a public employee must have at least three years of service credit in a Minnesota public pension plan to be eligible for retirement benefits. An employee who has met this three- year minimum, known as the vesting period, also must reach a certain age before beginning to receive benefits.

The regular yearly contributions amount for Deferred Compensation will increase from $23,000 to $23,500. The catch-up contribution limit that generally applies for employees aged 50 and over remains at $7,500 for 2025 for a combined maximum contribution limit of $31,000 in 2025.

You may keep your contributions in the Plan and continue to build savings for retirement. However, you may withdraw your contributions if you: Have a Plan account balance of less than $5,000, exclusive of any assets you may have in a rollover account, AND. Have not contributed to the Plan in the last two years, AND.

MNDCP plan overview The MNDCP allows eligible employees to supplement retirement income from their Minnesota public pension and Social Security benefits. Employees save and invest pre-tax and/or Roth after-tax dollars through automatic payroll deduction, called salary deferrals.

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.

With Roth 401(k)s, income taxes are not owed on the withdrawal of your contributions, but income taxes and the 10% penalty tax may apply on the withdrawal of earnings, unless an exception applies. It's important to keep taxes and penalties in mind when making an early withdrawal.
