Negative election/auto enrollment amendment

[Lori H]

deferral only plan wants to add an auto enrollment feature. Is the pre-PPA option only allowed to be amended prior to the beginning of the plan year?

I assume you mean it is neither an "EACA" or a "QACA" but just what I'd call a "regular" ACA?

If so, it can be done any time, BUT you still have a 30 day advance notice requirement. So realistically, "any time" means at least 30 days in the future.

Thank you. yes regular ACA
