Bayport-Blue Point UFSD 403b & TSA Retirement Options
This resource guides Bayport-Blue Point Union Free School District employees through the voluntary 403b options, Tax-Sheltered Annuities (TSA), and retirement planning benefits available through the district. For NYSTRS members, a 403b and a TSA refer to the exact same type of tax-advantaged account. These supplemental accounts are authorized by the district but managed by independent third-party providers.
Westchester Financial Partners provides independent pension optimization and 403b/TSA coordination for New York educators, serving Bayport-Blue Point UFSD staff and other Suffolk County educators from our Carle Place office.
Frequently Asked Questions About Bayport-Blue Point UFSD TSA Plans
What is the difference between a 403b, a TSA, and a Roth 403b?
A 403b—frequently referred to as a Tax-Sheltered Annuity (TSA)—is a voluntary retirement account that allows eligible Bayport-Blue Point Union Free School District employees to accumulate supplemental savings alongside their traditional NYSTRS pension. A traditional 403b uses pre-tax contributions to lower your current taxable income, with withdrawals taxed as ordinary income in the year received. Alternatively, a Roth 403b choice allows after-tax contributions, meaning your savings grow tax-deferred and qualified withdrawals are completely tax-free in retirement. Taxes and penalties may apply if funds are withdrawn prior to age 59½.
