Thanks everyone! Of the 17 (wow!) of you that responded oh so quickly: * Two Counties currently offer the College Advantage benefit via payroll deduction, * One County did offer this benefit via payroll deduction, but no longer due in part to lack of interest and the change of payroll deduction process by College Advantage * One County offers the benefit but employees work directly with College Advantage (OTTA), not through payroll deduction * The other respondents do not offer. Thanks again for your quick response to this mini-survey - I truly appreciate the info! Enjoy the rest of the week, Nancy Nancy A.

I have an easy question for you all this morning. We have had a baby boom here at Erie County and we are in the process of trying to persuade our Auditor's office that offering the College Advantage 529 College Savings Plan via payroll deduction would be a good thing. Just curious as to how many of you offer this benefit, and is it available through payroll deduction. Thanks - and here comes September ready or not. Nancy Nancy A.
