The Salary Reduction Agreement is where you indicate your Provider selection and the percentage of your salary that will be contributed to your new account each pay period. You will also indicate whether your contributions will be before or after taxes.

Bring your completed Salary Reduction Agreement to your campus/department's Benefits Administrator.
