About FICA Alternative

The FICA Alternative Plan was created to help government agencies save the cost of matching FICA (Social Security) tax on part-time, seasonal, and temporary employees who do not qualify for a state or government pension.

This comprehensive program features no conflict-of-interest, low fees (with no surrender charges or vendor penalties), competitive investments, turn-key administration, guaranteed compliance with applicable state laws, and fiduciary protection.
