sdix401k Posted November 13, 2006 Posted November 13, 2006 I need to confirm that an addtional discretionary match made in a Safe Harbor plan ( that meets all the requirments for passin acp ) would then cause a plan to be top heavy. In essence even though the plan satifies ADP / ACP from Safe Harbor Contributions does the act of making this addtional discretionary Safe Match cause the plan to now be top heavy tested? Thanks ina advance.
Tom Poje Posted November 13, 2006 Posted November 13, 2006 100 % confirmation is impossible at this time. at least one IRS official insists this would be the case. (I believe the reason being is that the discretionary does not satisfy ADP - it is an 'additional' contribution) However, individuals at Corbel would disagree, since the discretionary does indeed meet ACP safe harbor on its own. they keep promising to release some type of guidance on the issue.
