SSRRS 0 Report post Posted November 1 Thank you in advance for any help in this matter. Client with DB floor offset plan left and went to new firm. The new firm is asking for written explanation of how the offset calculation (ie accrued benefits after offset was determined). Question: How much work and time are we required to spend in explaining how the plan was administered. 2. Can there be a charge for our time etc. in putting together this information? Thank you.

Ilene Ferenczy 6 Report post Posted November 8 FWIW, you might want to augment your service agreement to add a provision outlining that there will be a charge for such a service, that it must be paid in advance, and the amount of that charge. That way, the client cannot claim surprise when you ask for the money. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
