Re: Overcontributing to TSP - is DFAS smart enough to stop you?
The only problem with a slight miss on the underside is that it could screw up your over-50 catchup contributions if you are trying to add those to your pot. You have to max out the regular tsp limits on annual basis before they will accept your catchups. I have catchup taken out each pp (5500/26), along with the regular 17000/26. As I understand it, if the regular contribs are a few $ over at end of year due to averaging/pp, they don't take the extra few $ of regular contrib out.
