This memo highlights certain provisions of the Deferred Compensation Program (DCP). For
specic details, refer to the
DCP Enrollment Guide
, DCP website at
drs.wa.gov/dcp
and the WAC
regulations mentioned below.
Contributions
The amount I choose to contribute will be
withheld from my monthly salary.
It is my responsibility to ensure my contributions
don’t exceed the allowable amount specied in
IRC 457. If they do, my employer will refund the
overage to me as taxable earnings. However, I
might qualify for catch-up options mentioned in
the
DCP Enrollment Guide
.
My contributions cannot begin sooner than
the month following this form’s approval
(WAC 415-501-410).
Investments
My contributions will be held in trust by the
Washington State Investment Board for the
exclusive benet of participants and their
beneciaries until paid to me under the rules of
the program (WAC 415-501-580).
I have elected to have my contributions invested
as indicated on this form. Earnings, if any, will be
applied to the target date fund based on my age
(WAC 415-501-475).
I may change or stop the amount I contribute
and may change my investment(s) by using the
DCP website or calling 888-327-5596.
Withdrawals
I can access my funds upon separation from
employment. Refer to WAC 415-501-485 for
distribution details and for exceptions that allow
access to funds before separation.
I may choose the date and method of
distribution of my accumulated contributions
according to those methods approved by
the Department of Retirement Systems (DRS)
(WAC 415-501-485).
In the event of my death, any unpaid benets
will be paid to my designated beneciaries
(WAC 415-501-486).
Administration
DCP is congured as an IRS 457(b) plan.
DRS retains administrative control over the
program, and the Legislature retains the right to
terminate the program (WAC 415-501-530 and
WAC 415-501-540).
My employer, DRS, the record keeper and the
Washington State Investment Board are not
liable for the performance of investments.
I may not assign or transfer my rights in the
program (WAC 415-501-570).
I will receive an enrollment conrmation notice,
indicating acceptance into the program.
Your Social Security number is needed so DRS can report to the IRS any funds paid to you. DRS will not disclose your
Social Security number unless required to do so by law. See IRC sections 6041(a) and 6109.
DCP Beneciary Designation To add or edit your beneciaries once you are enrolled in DCP, log in to
DRS at
drs.wa.gov/oaa
and select “My Account.” The beneciary designation for DCP is different from your
pension beneciary designation. You can also download a paper form from the DRS website if you are
unable to access an online account.
