BenefitsLink Newsletter for June 24, 1996 * * * * * * * * * * * * BenefitsLink is pleased to announce the availability of IRS Publication 571 in hypertext format! Publication 571 is entitled "Tax-Sheltered Annuity Programs for Employees of Public Schools and Certain Tax-Exempt Organizations." It is designed to be used by an employee who wishes to understand the complicated limits that apply each year to amounts contributed by the employee or an employer to a tax-sheltered annuity (sometimes called a "403(b) annuity"). The IRS publication is well written, but the large number of defined terms and non-indexed cross references make the 20-page printed version difficult to read. The BenefitsLink version makes the IRS publication much more accessible, because most of the cross-references have been converted to hypertext links. The reader can quickly jump from one topic to another by clicking on any highlighted term. There is no charge to use this service --- just set your Web browser to: http://www.benefitslink.com/403b (no capital letters). * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * To subscribe or unsubscribe to this free BenefitsLink Newsletter, just send email to Dave Baker at erisa@benefitslink.com.
