Voluntary Tax-Sheltered Annuity Program

The Voluntary Tax Sheltered Annuity Program offers benefits-eligible employees the opportunity to invest pre-tax dollars with a vendor approved by the Kansas Board of Regents for retirement savings. Annual limits are established by the IRS. Employees who are age 50 or above and/or who have completed 15 or more years of service with Kansas State University may qualify for a higher annual limit.

When Eligible: Benefits-eligible employees may begin VTSA participation on the first day of employment.

Who Pays: The employee contributes pre-tax dollars up to the individual maximum based on age and length of service to KSU. The University makes no contribution.
