Will an 11-g Amendment Work for this Situation?

"Plan has three allocation groups, with pro-rata allocations within each: Owners (2 participants) Other HCE (3 participants) Staff (6 participants) Passes testing at gateway (4.25) Right now HCE group gets 5% of pay. They want to give ONE of those HCE 8%. Can they do an 11(g) amendment giving the HCE 8% and 2 NHCE also 8%?"

Successor Plan - the Surprise Plan

"I have a plan that was a start up plan in 2023. They just notified us through their annual compliance questionnaire that the owner had a soloK that he rolled into the start up plan that was set up with a different name and EIN. Upon further questioning as to why he did not tell us about this prior plan he stated because it was for his other company before he had employees. He did not make any contributions to it in 2023 - he only made contributions in the new start up plan along with his employees. He only mentioned it because his provider for his soloK told him that he had a problem because of the successor plan rule. What is the best way to correct this situation?"

Match Coverage Failure and Failsafe Language

"Matching contributions fail coverage due to allocation conditions. Plan has failsafe language. it is FTW document. Can you bring in participants who did not defer and give them no match because they did not defer? Seem right based on plan language but seems wrong to bring in employees for coverage without giving them a contribution. Thanks."

Participant Died, No Beneficiary Form on File

"A NHCE participant has passed, never returned a Beneficiary Designation form. The CB is < $1,000. What paperwork the client should have in place in additional to a 'normal' distribution package? What should be the process to disburse the funds? I am thinking: [1] Some kind of documentation regarding the estate trust; [2] Documentation regarding who the trust administrator is; [3] Money should be payable directly to estate with the estate administrator being signatory after the paperwork is on file. Anything else?"
