Robert Heely, Inc. 401(k) Plan

Left in 2010, 2020, 2023? Worth asking about employer money

• In plan year 2010, active participants fell from 248 to 172 (31%), and 65 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 2020, active participants fell from 314 to 188 (40%), and 70 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. A 2021 law (Consolidated Appropriations Act, section 209) can excuse a drop between March 2020 and March 2021 if the plan had rehired enough people by March 31, 2021. Filing
• In plan year 2023, active participants fell from 169 to 134 (21%), and 37 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

This is a reason to ask the plan, not a finding. The plan decides, and it may show the drop was routine.
