CalSavers Retirement Savings Program
The CalSavers Retirement Savings Program is an automatic enrollment payroll deduction IRA program.
The CalSavers program ensures nearly all Californians have access to a workplace retirement savings program by offering employees a completely voluntary, low cost, portable retirement savings vehicle with professionally managed investments and oversight from a public, transparent board of directors, chaired by the California State Treasurer.
Any employer with at least five California-based employees, at least one of whom is age eighteen, that doesn’t already offer a workplace retirement savings vehicle will be required by state law to either begin offering one via the private market or provide their employees access to CalSavers.
Eligible employers can register for CalSavers at any time and will be required to comply by the following deadlines:
Size of business / Deadline
Over 100 employees / September 30, 2020
Over 50 employees / June 30, 2021
Five or more employees / June 30, 2022
CalSavers is a completely voluntary retirement program for employees. Savers can participate through their employer or on their own. Savers may choose their contribution rate, change their investments, or opt out (and opt back in) at any time;or, savers can stick with the standard account settings.
CalSavers is operated solely through saver fees, so there’s no cost paid by taxpayer revenue.
When you save with CalSavers, you’ll put your money to work for you:
A portion of your pay is automatically contributed to an Individual Retirement Account that belongs to you. If you don't work for a participating employer, but want to save through CalSavers, you can set up recurring contributions.
You can do nothing and let the standard account options kick in or customize your account by setting your own contribution rate and investments. Also, we’ve added an automatic increase feature that will increase your savings rate by 1% each year until your savings rate reaches 8%, unless you choose otherwise.
Your account is portable: You keep it if you leave your job.
You have access to your savings at any time, and the savings in your account is always yours.
This is financial repretion. They gonna make 401ks a mandatory thing for everyone. After that they gonna make 401ks to hold government bonds. Like it or not we are going to be forced to pay for government spending
I could see that as a possibility
Just what small struggling businesses need, more regulation. What could possibly go wrong?
Regulation is a huge issue. All these hoops to jump through as a small business owner, but not enough capital to hire people to help you jump through the hoops. It complicates things and increases the workload at the end of the day.
Always having Democrats think of a way to take the people money!
Not to mention they don't make it clear the employee must opt-out themselves online, it's definitely another scam .
Californians need to keep filing lawsuits against the state and bringing it to supreme court. I doubt it would hold up forcefully taking more money and having access to skim money out of forced retirement accounts.
They took money for this from my payhceck for a oncall part time job, the CALSAVERS never sent anyting within 30 days to opt out as they leglly should, then CASavers charges fees to roll over the money into another IRA or your bank whem you opt out and admit they were legally supposed to give opt out waiver within 30 days but never did that. Plus IRS will chanrge penalty if you also have your own business self empoloyed and put max $6500 in IRA already- 6 mo into the year CASAVErS started in May added money from your check to them without approval. It totally seems illegal and crazy CA is allowed to do this.
Just another vehicle to transfer more money to Wall Street, and investment giants!
Basically, I’m not a fan of the fees imposed by the plan. I think employees would be better off doing their own Roth outside of the company
And by the way it's illegal program,ERISA of 1974 , it's a law that protects people from this type of stuff ,and law suits are already being filed.
If an Employer already offers a retirement plan, they don't need to adopt CalSavers. I really wonder where the extra fee goes to because it really shouldn't cost that much to open an IRA for them and have payroll deduction to fund it. The employees are opting out not only in cases where they don't have the money, but also when the employee finds better option for an IRA elsewhere.
Great points and there are many better options available
Notice how the state takes out of their IRA calsavers accounts too? they give a range. So when they want more money they just skip from their sheeps lifes savings. Totally benevolent right?
I don't know why they reduced it to 5 , it's like we have no choice 🤷🏻♀️
I agree, at this point I would not be surprised if they made sole proprietors sign up next.
Did the California people vote this in? Who decided this and made it mandatory?
Hi Karin, no voting as far as I’m aware of. It started in 2016 so perhaps I can’t remember but I’m pretty sure this was not on the state ballot
@@MoneyandLifeTV So is it kind of dictatorship?
Sure feels like it. California is a beautiful state if you get away from the big cities, but the politics have created so many issues people are leaving in groves.
@@MoneyandLifeTV I know they are coming to my state by the handfuls.
Thank you for the info, Mike. Work, work, work, work harder to fulfill all the requirements. 😅
Looks like state street is the benificiary for this deal. They are using their funds
Hey Mike
Stock question for you
If I sell a stock at a loss and don’t go back in it for 30 days I can write off the loss against any gains I make on another stock in a different sector right? But does that gain need to be taken in the same year as the loss was ?
Hi Tyler, generally yes, as long as it does not get classified as a wash sale. The loss can carryforward to future years if large enough. You can generally deduct up to $3,000 of capital loss per year against your other forms of income regardless if there is a gain or not. If there is a gain then the loss can help offset the gain. Hope that helps.
will you make a video about the new inflation stimulus relief?
Likely so :)
I did sign up and had money taken out of my checks ...had emergency surgery and needed to withdrawal so I could make rent . they can't find my money .said they have an account with my name but no money in it ...then the guy said that my employer didn't send paper work in .. Wtf ? And do I get the penalties or the damn state ..California is really starting to piss me off I've been contributing since 2020 help me find my money ..cause this is some 1984 bull s$%t ..just saying.
I hate CalSavers ..they have no oversight and took my money I worked hard for .
