Funding Deadline When Fiscal Year End Changed

"Have a client that had their fiscal year end and plan year end 9/30. They changed fiscal year end to 12/31 but didn't change the plans year-end yet. They have a Safe Harbor 3% due for the 9/30/22 plan year end. When does it have to be funded by now that their fiscal year is 12/31?"

Hardship Distributions

"One of today's items in the Benefits Link newsletter had a write-up on hardship distribution self-certification. The following is an excerpt. I don't read Section 312 of SECURE 2.0 as containing any such restriction. What am I missing, if anything?

"Employers may now rely on an employee self-certification that they have experienced a hardship and that the employee has no other funds available to satisfy the hardship. Self-certification is only available for the first hardship request during a plan year. If the participant requests more than two hardship distributions in one year then the employer is required to have physical proof of the hardship."

Terminating DC 401(k) Plan

"Does any know how many years after the 401k Plan terminates can a participant bring a claim against the Fiduciary and Plan Sponsor. One of my client has insurance policy for this type of claim, and they will need to purchase 'tail coverage' for the policy for it to stay in effect in case anyone brings a claim. Is the statute of limitations for a 401k plan usually 3 years, or is it longer?"
