No. You are under no obligation to participate in a Section 125 program. However, you are required to sign an election form to indicate your choice. Can I enroll in a Section 125 plan whenever I want? Your employers Section 125 plan is an annual plan. You must enroll in the Section 125 plan during the eligible enrollment period or during the plan year if you experience a qualifying event or change in family status. Can I use the tax credit for medical expense deduction on my income tax return? No. Expenses reimbursed under this plan may not be used when calculating your medical expense Deduction.

403(b) Retirement Savings Plan
A 403(b) plan, also known as a Tax Sheltered Annuity (TSA) is a retirement plan for certain employees of public schools and tax‐exempt organizations. 403(b)’s are similar to 401k plans because they allow you to place an amount of your salary into an employer‐sponsored plan that helps you save for retirement. The benefit is that you do not pay income tax on allowable contributions until you begin making withdrawals from the plan, usually after you retire. Allowable contributions to a 403(b) plan are either excluded or deducted from your income. However, if your contributions are made to a Roth contribution program, this benefit does not apply. Instead, you pay income tax on the contributions to the plan but distributions from the plan (if certain requirements are met) are tax free. Benefits Include:
Tax deferred growth: no annual taxation on earnings
Investment options: fixed annuities, variable annuities, or mutual funds
Competitive interest rates
Flexibility: start, stop, and adjust your contributions as allowed by your employer's plan.
Receive periodic account statements
