Discussion About Large Plan Audits Rescheduled
October 21, 2012 (PLANSPONSOR.com) – The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has rescheduled a phone forum that didn’t take place due to the government shutdown.
Reported by PLANSPONSOR staff
The phone forum previously scheduled for October 16 will now be held November 21 at 2 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. In the free one-hour phone forum, “The Employee Plans Team Audit (EPTA) Program,” plan sponsors can learn about the IRS’s EPTA program for large case audits.
The forum will cover how the program selects plans for examination and how plans are examined, as well as initiatives on internal controls and international issues. Questions must be e-mailed to ep.phoneforum@irs.gov by November 10.
