AllThingsForGood Posted yesterday at 12:51 PM Posted yesterday at 12:51 PM If I am putting a client into a brand new DC prototype Plan Document, what Amendments/Addendums should be in their Document package?? I'm getting myself confused, maybe I'm just tired, ha ha. I'm BRAND NEW to FTWilliam; leaving another software that I've used for almost 3 decades! When I print the Adoption Agreement in the FTWilliam system, the following are part of that: the SECURE 2.0 Addendum 2026, the SECURE 2.0 Addendum 2025, and the SECURE/CARES/CAA Addendum. It seems VERY redundant to send a client each of these 3 Addendums, but is that accurate? Or does just the '2026' version go with a Document package? Again, my brain may just be revolting against the transition tasks, and I have researched this but cannot find a clear (dumbed down!) answer. Thanks guys.
AllThingsForGood Posted yesterday at 01:18 PM Author Posted yesterday at 01:18 PM I've actually determined my answer, I think, but I'm leaving this post up in hopes that it's useful to someone else. ALL 3 of those addendums I listed are part of a new Document package in FT Williams' system. They are not redundant.
John Feldt ERPA CPC QPA Posted 6 hours ago Posted 6 hours ago That’s correct. In a few months or so, when their cycle 4 document is ready, that will very likely change.
Peter Gulia Posted 4 hours ago Posted 4 hours ago For an existing plan already established: If a plan’s sponsor seeks to document whatever tax law calls a plan sponsor to document by December 31, 2026, does one sign a package as presented now (because one doesn’t expect a cycle 4 document to be available for use this December)?

I don't think it will change much. SECURE language wasn't included in C4. So like the Hardship IA in C3 times, we'll have SECURE IAs attached to C4.

I think yes, that's what must be done for the 12/31/26 deadline. Worse, the client will sign the IA by 12/31, and then sign it again on the C4 doc (just like what happened with the Hardship IA...)
