Enroll in the 401(k) Plan

Signing up for the 401(k) Plan is easy. Go to Fidelity NetBenefits, select New User and Register Now. You’ll be asked to verify your identity, provide your contact information, set up a username and create a password. See this document for step-by-step instructions.

Once you’ve successfully registered, you can enroll in the Plan. Select Microsoft 401(k) Plan, then choose between Easy Enroll (takes about two minutes) or Standard Enroll (takes about 20 minutes).

Easy enroll

Pick one of three packages with a pre-tax deferral election, a 1% pre-tax annual increase, and investment in the LifePath Target Date fund associated with your age. You can change these elections anytime.

Standard enroll

If you prefer to select from the array of available investment options, go the standard enrolment route where you can set your payroll deduction and investment elections.

Special note for rehires

If you’ve been rehired and already have a balance in the Microsoft 401(k) Plan, you must submit a new contribution election to participate in the Plan. Even if your prior election is still visible, you must enter and submit it as a change.

Now that you’re enrolled, complete your set-up by:
