Washington – The U.S. Department of Labor's Employee Benefits Security Administration (EBSA) will host a free webcast November 5 to help employers, plan administrators and service providers prepare for changes to the Form 5500 and electronic filing requirement that begin with the 2009 plan year filings.
The Department of Labor will offer webcasts and other educational outreach throughout the year. This third webcast will provide more details about preparing the Form 5500 and getting ready for the new electronic filing system. An important part of the discussion will focus on the Schedule C and the impact on 403(b) plans.
