Yes you can contribute to all three however the 401k and the 403b share the same elective deferral limit (402(g) Limit) of 16,500 plus 5,500 for over age 50. 457 have a different limit (it's call a 457 limit) plus a separate age 50 catch up (only for governmental 457 plans) so your totals are 16,500 plus 5,500 for 401k and 403b 16,500 plus 5,500 for 457.

401k funds may generally be rolled over into a 403b account if the new employer of the 403b plan permit. Although the IRS allows for this action to be taken, not all employers do allow for it.If done properly, the event creates no tax liability or penalty upon the account-holder.

Any employee, regardless of the type of work he or she performs, is eligible for a 401k if the employer offers it. An employer is not required to offer a 401k, however. If an employer-sponsored plan (401k, 403b, SEP IRA, etc.) is not available, often individuals will contribute to a Traditional IRA or Roth IRA.

There are not any special benefits of a 403B retirement plan when compared to the more familiar 401K retirement plan. The only difference is that if your work for the government or are in a civil service type job the retirement plan is called 403B.
