Guest willwork4shoes Posted October 30, 2003 Posted October 30, 2003 Hi! I have a client who is ready to terminate his plan over top heavy! At PYE 2003, we determined that the plan is now top heavy. Now down to 10 employees he's had 3 valid hardship terminations and and 3 employees stop making deferrals at all. We figured that if the hardships had not been taken, they would not be top heavy. Any suggestions? ********************* Side note******************** Is the Michael Preston on this message board, the same Michael B. Preston, EA, MAAA that I use to work with in Los Angeles? If so, guess who?
Archimage Posted October 30, 2003 Posted October 30, 2003 I assume you mean hardship distribution and not hardship termination. All in-service distributions are added back to the participants' account balance within 5 years before the determination date in regards to top heavy. It sounds like your plan is not top heavy based on the information you have provided.
