Is a 5500 required?

[Guest QKAcked Up]

Client has supplimental benefits (cancer, etc.). The employees purchase individual policies on an after-tax basis and the premiums are run through payroll.

Is this an arrangement that would require a form 5500 filing? I'm pretty sure the answer is yes, but the client is arguing against it and making me second-guess myself. Any thoughts?

Thanks
