Frequently asked questions

Should I choose Roth or Traditional TSP?

Roth TSP is funded with after-tax dollars and grows tax-free, which usually wins if you expect a higher tax rate later (common for younger troops). Traditional lowers your taxes now. Many service members split between the two.

How much does the BRS match?

Under BRS the government adds an automatic 1% of basic pay and matches your contributions up to another 4% — so contributing at least 5% every month captures the full 5% match.
