thepensionmaven Posted June 13, 2009 Posted June 13, 2009 We recently took over a 401(K) plan and the definition of compensation is W-2 Gross (Box 5). The client also sponsors a Section 125 plan. The previous TPA was using W-2 box 5. The plan document states that the ADP/ACP tests shall be based on Gross W-2 w/o reduction for employee deferrals or employee contributions to a 125 plan. Client wants to reduce W-2 by contribution to the 125 plan. Would this be OK??
K2retire Posted June 13, 2009 Posted June 13, 2009 A properly prepared W-2 will not include that portion of the income that was deducted for the 125 plan. You can't deduct it a second time.
