Extension of Special Rule for Auto Enrollment Plans

That special rule for missed deferral opportunity in an auto enrollment plan was set to expire 12/31/2020.  Does anyone know if the IRS extended it somewhere along the way?

I was hoping the IRS would extend, but have not seen anything yet.

New EPCRS is "in the works", and I think this is one of the driving issues.  No word on when we can expect it as far as I know.

Great! That is all we need is a new EPCRS. They could easily handle the extension in one page Rev. Proc.

Important aspect of this to note.  It IS available for failures that began on or before 12/31/2020.
