Cynchbeast Posted February 22, 2016 Posted February 22, 2016 If an eligible NHCE in a non-top heavy plan receives a 0% allocation for the year (the participant is not excluded, just receives 0%), is that person still included in the Gateway Minimum testing, which would therefore cause plan to fail test? We use Datair, and when I give such a person 0%, the Gateway test still passes because the lowest allocation (to anyone receiving $) is 5%.
Lou S. Posted February 22, 2016 Posted February 22, 2016 $0 is fine as long as you pass testing with the individual receiving $0. Once the participant receives any employer allocation, say $1, then they now need to receive the gate-way. Strange but true.
Mike Preston Posted February 22, 2016 Posted February 22, 2016 If it is a pure DC plan then Datair has it right, as I would expect.
