To cover the costs necessary to maintain a compliant plan, TDS charges an administration fee for each active account within the plan.
Many vendors are paying the administration fee for plan participants; however some vendors have elected not to. Participants contributing to vendors that have elected not to pay the administration fee may have the fee deducted from their paycheck each month on an after-tax basis if elected by the employer. In some cases the employer pays the fees on behalf of its employees.
