HOW TO ADJUST YOUR LONGEVITY PAY CONTRIBUTION AMOUNT

Your Longevity Payment for Suffolk County Employees is coming up in April 2026! If you're part of the Suffolk County Public Employees Deferred Compensation Plan, you have the option to defer this payment to your T. Rowe Price (457B) account.

To adjust your Longevity Pay contribution amount, contact T. Rowe Price directly:

💻 Website: www.rps.troweprice.com

📱 App: T. Rowe Price Personal® App

To make this change, please log in to your T. Rowe Price account and follow these steps:

  1. Select “Change your contributions.”
  2. When the next screen opens, select “Longevity Pay / Non-Base” and click “Enter.”
  3. On the following screen, enter the percentage you would like to defer.
  4. Submit your election.

Haven't made adjustments yet? The Longevity Pay Deferral Rate for members who have not yet made adjustments is set to zero, but you can choose your preferred rate through T. Rowe Price. Please note that election rates continue until changed by the participant.  If you do not change your longevity contribution amounts, your deferral rates in 2026 will be the same rates you elected in 2025. 

Changes to your 2026 Longevity Pay election rates should be made as soon as possible. To ensure timely processing, we advise completing all changes before March 27, 2026.
