Question: is tsp considered a roth ira?
Answer: Roth TSP is NOT a Roth IRA! ... The giant federal-military 401(k) plan, the Thrift Savings Plan, is introducing a Roth option, for its 4.5 million-plus investors. The TSP, like other 401(k) plans, is a way to save on taxes. Money invested in the TSP is tax-deferred until you start withdrawing it.
