None* $24,000 deferral ($6,000) catchup $18,000 net deferral $6,500 PS. Total $24,500 testable under 415. Under by $1,500. (*) assuming no other underlying document limits such as a deferral limit under 92%

Usually March or April, I think.

Why would a trustee want to be responsible for the assets of non/former employees? (Seems to me like somebody wants/needs more assets in the plan)

Git 'er done by the 13th. Charge the client for the rush job if need be. Side note: Has anyone heard of this ever being a problem? March 15 has come on a weekend 7 times in the last 18 years: 2014 2009 2008 2003 2002 1998 1997 Surely if it was a big deal, there would have been some noise about it....

Was ER B ever mandated to join the plan?

I am in a similar situation.

I am the Plan Administrator in this case. I will be qualifying/rejecting the order.

I am reviewing a DRO and the plan name is slightly incorrect. The name of the plan is ABC, Inc. 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan It is listed in the order as ABC, Inc. Profit Sharing Plan The plan was once known as PSP, but we added a 401(k) feature for 2013 and changed the name. This doesn't seem material, as it is quite obvious to which plan the order refers--the participant has no other retirement plans. The EOB says that when a name or address is misstated, the plan administrator should "supplement the order rather than reject it..." How do you supplement an order? Does it go back tot he judge? Just noted in the file? Do I write something to everyone such as: the name of the plan in the order should be xxxxxx. Your thought are appreciated.

To me, it's not following the provisions of the plan. It doesn't matter that testing would pass.

Why not? Plan consists solely of owners.

There are a few of questions here: 1: how did the loan go into default? Usually, a loan will not default until the end of the quarter following the quarter in which the payments stopped. Usually. You were only out for 5 weeks, so there is no way you could have been a quarter behind. Check the plan's loan policy to see what the default schedule is. 2: what did they say the $308 check was for? Was it for payments you made after the loan defaulted? 3: did the plan administrator give you something in writing that the payment would go up and the reason for it?

QNEC?

You can still have a 12-month suspension. It's just that Safe Harbor Match plans MUST have the 6-month period (at most). I think.

I used to work with a plan document that said if you had a last day rule and if any contributions came in during the year, it was deemed the last day rule was waived for the year.

Is the entire account deferral? Or does the document limit hardships to deferrals only? (Defaulting $22k when he deferred $25k implies there were other sources in the account. Unless his investments did really well and he doubled his 401(k) account)

We have a DC plan that allowed terminated participants to take partial withdrawals (separate from installments). They may want to eliminate that, allowing for only installments and lump sums (and the QJSA already there). Can they? I thought you could eliminate all other forms of distribution if a lump sum was available.

Are teh service-spanning rules universal, or must it be explicitly stated in the plan document?

Any good, FREE material available for the EA-2F exam? I'm planning on getting either the ACTEX or ASM manual, but I wouldn't mind some additional, supplemental material.

RMD on 500,000 at 82 is about $30,000

But could you have a plan that allows ONLY Roth deferrals, not pre-tax?

Why is that, John?

The distribution form from the carrier has the part about 10% / zero / other tax withholdling.

402(f) Notices are for eligible rollover distributions only, right? So I would not have to send one with RMD paperwork?

Elevating? I learned a new pension word.

Could you have the amendment say that hardships from deferrals are only allowed on deposits after the amendment date? (You'd probably have to keep track of them separately, before and after).
