Asset sale occurred 11/2, plan termination effective date is 11/3, seller (sponsor of plan being terminated) says employees were terminated on 11/1. This is a tested plan but only owners are HCE's. There are no Employer contributions.
Can non-owner employees be paid out on 11/30 before any year-end work is done technically on the basis of being terminated employees vs. for the reason of the plan termination?
