Guest Patti Posted June 18, 2014 Report Share Posted June 18, 2014 Are there any federal rules on timely deposits that would apply to pick-up contributions? Would it make a difference if the pick up contributions were made directly by the employer or by withholding them from the employees' pay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carol V. Calhoun Posted June 18, 2014 Report Share Posted June 18, 2014 No. From a federal perspective, pick-up contributions are treated as employer contributions, even if there are corresponding wage reductions to finance them. And the federal laws governing the timing of employer contributions don't apply to governmental plans (which are the only kind of plans that can have pick-up contributions). If there are restrictions, they would have to come from state law, not federal.
