Income Deferral Programs
Some employers allow certain employees, typically executives, to defer receipt of a portion of their annual income. An election is made, prior to earning the income, to have the receipt of the income deferred. This deferral reduces current income taxes and also could enable the individual to enjoy tax-deferred investment growth on the amount deferred.
