Segal Consulting Nov. 23, 2016 "[T]rustees should consider taking steps now to help ensure that they will not be caught off-guard if they receive a notice for one of these investigations.... [1] Determine whether the plan has the necessary data to identify the terminated vested participants ... who are about to about to become or who already are eligible for payment.... [2] Notify terminated vested participants who are about to become eligible for payment at NRA or to be required to start payment at age 70-1/2 ... [3] Inform terminated vested participants who are at or who have passed their required age 70-1/2 payment date that their payments must begin, and take steps to initiate payment as soon as possible.... [4] Investigate the treatment of uncashed checks under the plan." |
