My client (DC- 401(k) Plan) is re-enrolling their entire participant population into an age-appropriate target date fund, unless participants opt out. Dates are still being worked out, but we are tentatively looking at opening the opt-out window on 2/9, closing it on 2/27, and updating the planwide exchanges and allocation changes on 3/1.
QUESTION:
My question is about requirements for timing of participant communications/notices. If we notify participants on or about 2/9, is that sufficient notice? Or do we have to give them at least 30 days for 404© purposes, etc.?
