PainPA Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 I have a client who saw an old plan name in the newpaper (merged into the existing plan about 10 years ago) for unclaimed money. He was the trustee then and is now. Any ideas on what can be done with the money? or the proper methods i should use to capture this... We are only talking about $1,500.00 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are only talking about $1,500.00 Is this a government 401k plan or a private 401k plan? If the plan is subject to ERISA funds never should have been escheated to the state. The solution is for a plan repesentative to request payment of the funds from the state agency holding the money and allocate it to the owner/participant. the procedures will be in the newpaper advertisement or chekc the internet listing for the state agency. mjb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PainPA Posted September 25, 2009 Author Share Posted September 25, 2009 It is Private 401(k) and it appears to be a dividend of which the plan was an unallocated trustee directed plan at the time. So the dividend is for everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
