401(k) Plan - 1 year of service dual entry for non-elective PS and Safe Harbor, 3 mos of service monthly entry for deferrals. Plan is top heavy. Client is allocating a profit sharing so we must meet top heavy minimum requirements. Plan Compensation is date of entry for each source.
ee#1 - hired 4/1/13 - enters plan for non-elective ps and safe harbor 7/1/14. Receives combined profit sharing and safe harbor on 1/2 year comp (7/1 - 12/31/14) of 5%. Gateway testing on 1/2 year compensation passes. In addition, making sure it meets 3% top heavy on full year comp.
EE#2 - hired 4/1/14 - not eligible for non-elective profit sharing or safe harbor.
Since plan is top heavy and eligible to defer, must receive top heavy 3% on full year comp. Now that top heavy is allocated, must test gateway, Correct?. What compenation would I use for the gateway portion since eligible compensation for non-elective ps and sh is $0 since not eligible. If I use comp from participation date for deferrals 6/1/14 - it doesn't seem fair to ee#1.
What compensation should I test gateway for EE#2? Thanks!
