Presentor: Derrin Watson Recorded Date: 8/17/2016 Duration: 100 Min.

Description

*******************************************************************************

The IRS has just release Rev. Proc. 2016-37. This important new guidance makes good on the IRS decision to provide no more than 2 determination letters for individually designed plans: one when the plan is adopted, and one when the plan is terminated. With that, the Service revises the remedial amendment period, and the deadline to adopt many interim amendments, and changes the procedures to move from an individually designed document to a preapproved document

This special web seminar details all the new rules and what they mean for prototype and volume submitter plans and for preapproved plans. Topics include:

  • End of most individual determined letters
  • Changes to remedial amendment period
  • Changed deadlines for interim amendments
  • Transition relief
  • Deadlines for discretionary amendments
  • New IRS lists for required amendments and operational compliance
  • Revised rules for moving from individually designed plans to preapproved plans
  • Modified off-cycle filing rules
  • Requests for individual letters for preapproved plans
