No Signature Needed for 5558 to Extend 8955-SSA
FIS Relius [Guidance Overview] June 21, 2012
"[Effective immediately,] a single Form 5558 can be used to extend both Form 5500 (or 5500-SF) and Form 8955-SSA for up to three plans of a single employer without a signature. The only time a signature is needed for Form 5558 is if it is used to extend Form 5330. This makes sense because the extensions for the 5500 and 8955-SSA are automatic, with no explanation needed; the IRS has the discretion to grant or deny an extension request for Form 5330, and does so based on the explanation given on the Form 5558, which must be signed under penalty of perjury."
