Manage Your Account
Now that you've set up your account, it's time to add your personalized settings. You can access your account at any time online or by phone during business hours.
As you move through the last steps, keep in mind that this account is yours and you will always have access to it, even if you move to a different employer or work for multiple employers throughout your career. If you move out of state or start working for an employer that offers its own plan, you can keep your money in your Illinois Secure Choice account, roll it over into another Roth IRA account, or take your money out entirely—the choice is yours.
Contributions Determining how much to save is an important decision. Your contribution rate is the percent deducted from your paycheck after-taxes that goes into your Illinois Secure Choice account. Investments Deciding where to invest your money is just as important as determining how much to invest. We offer a range of funds for you to choose from to suit your preferred savings needs. Withdrawals Sometimes unexpected events happen. If you need to take funds out of your Illinois Secure Choice account before retirement, you need to request a distribution. Beneficiaries Selecting a beneficiary is the best way to ensure that your assets end up exactly where you want them to go. Whether it’s a person or an organization, it’s important to take the time to consider your options.
