DFVCP Filing for Pre-1999 years

[trumpy43560]

Hi Guys -

I'm trying to figure out what to file for a DFVCP filing going back into pre-1999 years. Based on my reading of the current instructions I would think that I would use current year 5500 and schedule I and electronically file through EFAST2. However, the 5500 Form Selection tool for this does not recognize plan years prior to 1999 so I'm second guessing myself. Just wanted to see what others are doing.

Thanks!

Correct. Years prior to 2012 should be submitted using the current year 5500. That is funny about the selection tool, it couldn't have been that much more work to code it to work for pre-1999 years

Since the DOL didn't take over 5500 processing from IRS until 1999 I don't believe they'll even accept pre-1999 returns under EFAST & DFVCP.

I suspect that at this late date IRS doesn't give a rip about pre-1999 5500s either.
