Columbus Neighborhood Health Center Profit Sharing Plan

Left in 2011, 2012, 2012? You may be owed employer money

• In plan year 2011, active participants fell from 150 to 119 (21%), and 32 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
• In plan year 2012, 54 people (45% of active participants) left before they were fully vested. Turnover that high can count as a partial plan termination (Revenue Ruling 2007-43), which requires full vesting of employer money for those who left. The plan may argue it was routine turnover. Filing
• The plan ended in plan year 2012. 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.
