It was determined (after year-end) that a large traditional 401(k) plan had a partial plan termination in 2018. The plan operates on the calendar year. Additional match contributions (plus earnings) were calculated and deposited to the plan in late 2019 as a correction for the 2018 partial termination. The plan administrator had originally calculated refunds to HCEs for failed ADP/ACP. Now the PA is saying that the plan had to be re-tested for the 2018 plan year after the correction for the partial plan termination, and additional refunds are due to the HCEs. Should the compliance testing for 2018 be re-run as a result of the corrective actions taken for the partial plan termination? Thanks! -
Employer ABC sponsors a 401k plan. There are 3 participants. ABC sells practice location #1 of 2 to an employee Z (Non-HCE). The new owner Z does not continue the ABC Plan as a result of buying the practice location #1. Is this a partial plan termination and should Z's account in ABC 401k be 100% vested?

Employer filed a Form 5310 to terminate its 401(k) plan effective September 2014. Form 5310 was filed April 2015. During the review process, IRS agent analyzed the data in question 16 (6 year turnover rate / non vested participants). Agent now takes the position that there was a partial plan termination in 2009 and 2010 and is requesting that all partially vested, terminated participants in those years be retroactively fully vested. Assuming agent is correct that there was a partial plan termination in 2009 and 2010, would asserting a statute of limitations defense be viable? The 2009 and 2010 Form 5500s were both filed more than 3 years before the Form 5310 application. There is no question on the Form 5500-SFs that were filed asking about partial plan termination (i.e., the returns are accurate as filed).
