2015 CIVILIAN TSP CONTRIBUTION LIMITS
Calendar year 2015 has 27 pay periods since the last pay day falls on Jan. 1, 2016 (a Federal holiday), which means you will be paid one day earlier on Dec. 31, 2015.
If you are under the Federal Employees Retirement System and you wish to receive the maximum agency matching contributions for 2015, you must ensure you do not reach the $18,000 contribution limit before the last pay day of the year. If you reach the contribution limit before the last pay period you will not receive matching contribution for the pay period (s) that no contributions were made.
If you want to distribute your TSP contributions over the remaining pay periods in 2015, update your election in the Employee Benefits Information System (EBIS). If you decide to change your election, take into consideration the effective date of your election and how many pay periods remain in the year.
For additional information on contribution limits and effective dates, visit the MyPers website and search “Thrift Savings Plan contribution limit”.
