You can contribute as little as $15 per month or as much as 100% of your eligible compensation up to $23,000 for 2024 (was $22,500 for 2023) in the UTSaver TSA, (Traditional and Roth combined). There are also two catch up provisions:

• Age 50 Catch up: If you are age 50 or older, you may contribute an additional $7,500.
• 15 Years of Service Catch up: If you have 15 years of UT System service, and your previous deferrals in the UTSaver TSA have averaged less than $5,000 per year, you may defer up to an additional $3,000. The additional deferral may not exceed a lifetime maximum of $15,000. Eligibility for the amount you can contribute under this catch-up provision must be calculated by your Benefits Office.

Your UTSaver Deferred Compensation Plan contributions do not affect the total amount you are able to defer under the UTSaver TSA.
