Deferring Terminal Payout

These payouts are considered income and are therefore subject to taxes. If you wish to defer the taxes on this payout, follow the steps below to put the money into a 403(b) or 457 tax-deferred account via payroll deduction. You will not pay taxes on the money until you withdraw it from your account.

• Request your terminal pay amount and the paycheck date that the payout will occur by contacting Human Resources at 513-529-3131 or Academic Personnel at 513-529-6724.
  
  • If you wish to defer a portion of the terminal payout, calculate the deferral amount carefully. If the amount of your request is more than what your actual paycheck is, no deduction will be made and no money will go into your account.
