The Ohio Deferred Compensation program offers a flexible and tax-advantaged way for state and local government employees to supplement their retirement savings. With options for both pre-tax and Roth contributions, participants can tailor their approach to suit their financial goals and tax preferences.
You can request a withdrawal or unforeseeable emergency form by calling the Service Center at 877-644-6457. Once you have separated from employment, and received an initial payment, you can manage any future withdrawals by logging into your account and selecting the Withdrawals tab.

You may withdraw funds from the Program only upon: 1. Ending your employment (including termination, retirement, or death) 2. An Unforeseeable Emergency (as defined by Section 457 of the IRC) 3.
You can make contributions (deferrals) to a Roth 457 account with Ohio 457 and/or ICMA-RC. A Roth 457 account is different from the Traditional 457 account because contributions (deferrals) are post tax rather than pre-tax.
There might also be a 10% tax penalty assessed by the IRS if withdrawn before age 59½ for outside accounts rolled into this plan. Ohio DC 457 accounts do not have age requirements or early withdrawal penalties. You should consider all factors before making a decision.
A government 457(b) deferred compensation plan is a voluntary retirement savings plan that allows eligible employees to supplement any existing retirement/pension benefits by saving and investing pre-tax dollars through payroll deferrals.
