Today the U.S. Department of Labor’s Pension
and Welfare Benefits Administration issued a reminder to the employee benefit
plan community that the deadline for filing 1999 Form 5500 Series
returns/reports under the new ERISA Filing Acceptance System (EFAST) is fast
approaching.
In an announcement dated March 31, 2000, the
department automatically extended the due date for most 1999 Form 5500 Series
filers to Oct. 16, 2000. This extension applies to filers whose 1999 Form
Series were due on or before July 31, 2000.
Additional information about the automatic
extension is available on PWBA’s website at www.efast.dol.gov . Questions
about the Form 5500 filing requirements should be addressed to PWBA’s
EFAST Help Desk at 202-219-8770. |
