The Thrift Savings Plan (TSP) is a Federal government-sponsored retirement savings plan. Since 1987, civilian employees covered by the Federal Employees Retirement System (FERS) have been eligible to contribute to the TSP and to receive partial government matching. Employees covered by the Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) have been eligible to contribute to the TSP since 1988 with no government matching. While TSP participation is optional for both CSRS and FERS employees, the TSP offers the same savings and tax benefits that many private businesses offer their employees through 401(k) and 403(b) retirement plans.
