Using identical prototype documents with QSLOBs/Multiple employer plan

[Lori H]

Have you ever come across any restrictions using the same prototype document for a plan that is being spun off from a multiple employer? The spin off will have it's own plan obviously, but using the same prototype sponsor. These are 401(k)'s. Would you check with the document provider to ensure there are no issues?

I think Standardized Prototypes sometimes have language in that might make some things problematic but most Non-Standardized Prototypes should be fine. Probably wouldn't hurt to run it by your document provider as this is a question they can probably answer fairly easily.
