I have a new client who came to me for PPA restatement and tossed in admn that his accountant had been doing for him. He is a PC sponsoring a profit sharing plan, with no 401(k) provision, and no employees. For the last few years he has made 401(k) elective deferrals from his S-Corp wages, and has made employer contributions up to max deduction amount each year. Would you treat the 401(k) contribution as an "excess allocation" under EPCRS and refund the deferrals back to the guy? I'd love to be able to amend retroactively under VCP, but am not sure this is a 401(a) failure that would allow me to do so. Given that he's made the 401(k) contributions over the last 4 years or so, it would be an expensive correction if I can't amend retroactively.
