Presentation Description
The impact of Controlled Group (CG) status treats all employees of member corporations as a single employer for various testing and limit purposes. Attribution rules affect CG determination, with exceptions for spouses and minor children. The SECURE 2.0 Act modifies attribution rules, particularly concerning minor children and community property states, altering CG implications. Additionally, it influences Affiliated Service Groups (ASGs), affecting plans' testing and adoption strategies. Understanding these changes is crucial for plan compliance and strategic decision-making.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the fundamental concepts of Controlled Groups (CG), including its implications for retirement plan testing and limits.
- Identify the criteria for determining Parent-Subsidiary and Brother-Sister CGs, recognizing the ownership structures involved.
- Explore the application of family attribution rules in CG determination, including exceptions for spouses and minor children, and their impact on plan compliance.
- Evaluate the effects of the SECURE 2.0 Act on CG and Affiliated Service Groups (ASGs), discerning their implications for retirement plan adoption and testing strategies.
