It pays you benefits for specific injuries and events resulting from a covered accident. The amount paid depends on the type of injury and care received.

The earlier you begin to set aside funding, the better it grows.Visit https://appleton.beready2retire.com to: Enroll in the plan View plan information Review investment options and performance Access retirement articles, seminars, and newsletters Schedule a meeting with our Voya Financial RepresentativeRoth 457(b)Unlike contributions to a traditional 457(b) plan, which are made on a pre-tax basis, contributions to a Roth 457(b) are made on an after-tax basis. This means your Roth contributions will be subject to income taxes before they’re invested in your 457(b) accounts.Withdrawal of your contributions may be tax-free when you retire (qualifying factors apply). In short, you’d be trading a current tax benefit for a future tax benefit. So, does this trade-off make sense for you? It primarily depends on whether you think your federal income tax rate will be higher at retirement, or lower.Download the Voya Retire AppAn easy, secure, and convenient way to access and manage your retirement account all in one place.Plan AdministratorVoya Financial Advisors, Inc.Julie RodriguezFinancial Professional(708) 691-0468Julie.Rodriguez@voyafa.comm
