An employee was re-hired after incurring five 1-year breaks in service.  He never took a termination distribution from the plan.  Since he is now an active employee but not yet eligible to re-enroll in the plan, is he able to borrow against his account in the plan?

The rule of parity allows you to disregard eligibility service before 5 consecutive 1-year breaks in service for an unvested participant. If this person has a vested balance in the plan then they probably entered the plan immediately upon re-hire, regardless of how many 1-year breaks in service occurred.
