Tax Sheltered Annuities 403(b)

At Ocean View, we are committed to ensuring that managing your 403(b) plan is a seamless and straightforward experience. Our plan administration services are proudly provided by School’s First Credit Union, a trusted partner dedicated to your financial well-being. Ocean View School District offers an optional deferred program for employees which meets the requirements of section 403(b) of the Internal Revenue Service code. 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 The employee does not pay income tax on this amount until it is withdrawn.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 Generally, these funds may not be withdrawn until the employee attains age 59 1/2.

If you have questions about setting up your 403(b) plan or need assistance with any changes, our expert representative is here to help. Feel free to reach out to them directly using the contact information provided below. Alternatively, you can easily fill out the form on this page, and we’ll make sure your needs are addressed promptly.
