Left in 2022, 2024? You may be owed employer money
- In plan year 2022, active participants fell from 509 to 335 (34%), and 40 people left before they were fully vested. When a plan loses about 20% or more of its participants in a year, the IRS presumes a partial plan termination (Revenue Ruling 2007-43). Everyone who left in that period must then be fully vested in the employer's contributions. Filing
- The plan ended in plan year 2024. When a plan ends, everyone who still has an account must be fully vested in the employer's contributions (Internal Revenue Code section 411(d)(3)). If you left within about five years before that with employer money not yet vested, it may not have been forfeited yet, and may be yours. Filing
This is a reason to ask the plan, not a finding. The plan decides, and it may show the drop was routine.
