Under this plan, employees can set aside certain amounts of money each pay period. The employee does not pay income tax on this amount until it is withdrawn. Interest earned on these funds is also not taxed until withdrawal. Certain withdrawal restrictions apply. Generally, these funds may not be withdrawn until the employee attains age 59 1/2.
