How to Enroll

Your Lodge will hold enrollment meetings when the NFOP-RHS plan becomes available to you. To enroll in the plan follow these steps:

• Step 1 – Attend an enrollment meeting scheduled by your Lodge. If you cannot attend, request a copy of the enrollment kit and video from your Lodge or by calling 1-866-747·NFOP (747-6367)
• Step 2 – Complete the enrollment form and one or both of the contribution election forms:
  • Election form for pre-tax contribution from compensation
  • Election form for pre-tax contribution of accrued leave at separation from service. (In most cases you may need to declare your intent to use your accrued leave for this purpose up to a year before your intended date of separation from service.)
• Step 3 – Review the investment options available in your plan. The default investment for your plan will be the Vantagepoint Savings Oriented Model Portfolio Fund
• Step 4 – use the enrollment form to designate your initial investment allocation for your plan. After your account has been established you may change your investment allocation at any time online through Account Access or by calling the toll-free VantageLine service from ICMA-RC.
• Step 5 – Return completed forms to your Lodge as described on the forms
