K2 Posted November 14, 2018 Posted November 14, 2018 Our client terminated their defined benefit plan. There are excess assets that they want to roll into their 401k plan and allocate, ratably over the next seven years, as a profit sharing contribution. I don't see any language in my Datair document that covers this kind of "suspense" account, or whatever I should call it. Does anyone else know of a document provider whose plan has language that supports this qualified replacement plan?
Belgarath Posted November 14, 2018 Posted November 14, 2018 Sure - FIS/Relius. Their PPA DC Prototype/VS document handles this - has a whole section dealing with it. P.S. - without checking, I'm thinking that the period is 6 years, not 7.
digger Posted November 14, 2018 Posted November 14, 2018 excess is to be allocated ratably over 7 years beginning in the year of the transfer IRC 4980(d)(2)(C)(II)
david rigby Posted November 14, 2018 Posted November 14, 2018 To be precise, "no less rapidly than" 7 years. For example, if the amount transferred to the replacement plan is (relatively) small, it's possible the allocation might be completed in only one year. I'm a retirement actuary. Nothing about my comments is intended or should be construed as investment, tax, legal or accounting advice. Occasionally, but not all the time, it might be reasonable to interpret my comments as actuarial or consulting advice.
Belgarath Posted November 15, 2018 Posted November 15, 2018 I stand corrected. Don't know why 6 years stuck in my head...
DMcGovern Posted November 15, 2018 Posted November 15, 2018 Any chance someone could share sample document language that deals with this? Thanks in advance!
K2 Posted November 19, 2018 Author Posted November 19, 2018 Yes, if there is some language someone is willing to share, that would be wonderful!
