Roth 403(b)

Effective January 2010, Gonzaga University is offering a new Roth contribution to the existing 403(b) workplace retirement savings plan. Unlike your traditional, pre-tax 403(b), the Roth 403(b) allows you to contribute after-tax dollars, but then withdraw tax-free dollars from your account when you retire if you are at least 59-1/2 years old and it has been five tax years since your first Roth 403(b) contribution.

The following information can help you decide if the Roth 403(b) makes sense in your situation:
