Annual Registration Statement Identifying Separated Participants With Deferred Vested Benefits

In 2007, the Department of Labor (DOL) published a final rule requiring plans subject to the annual reporting requirements of Title I of Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) to electronically file the Form 5500, Annual Return/Report of Employee Benefit. In order to accommodate the DOL's mandate for electronic filing of the Form 5500 series, Schedule (SSA) has been eliminated and replaced with Form 8955-SSA. The information provided by plan sponsors on Form 8955-SSA will be transmitted to the Social Security Administration (SSA) who will provide it to separated participants when those participants file for social security benefits.
