Fiduciary Service

Liability Handoff

3(16) Fiduciary Service

A 3(16) Fiduciary is a level of service that hires Comprehensive Benefit Consultants to assume liability for the day-to-day administration of your 401(k)/403(b) Plan. The addition of our 3(16) Service allows CBC to take on the responsibility for timely enrollments & deferrals, sign-off on loan & distribution requests, assure timely notice delivery, and sign the annual 5500 form filing.

Timely Enrollments

Assure employees receive invites to enroll in the plan upon fulfilling eligibility requirements. Assure automatic-enrollments are completed.

Sign-Off Distributions

Distribution requests come directly to the CBC team. We can review employee accounts, assure the distribution request fulfills IRS parameters, and sign approval for the distribution to be completed.

Timely Deferrals

Assure employee deferrals are withheld and transferred to the recordkeeper within the IRS allotted timeframe.

Sign 5500

Comprehensive Benefit Consultants will assume liability for the 401(k)/403(b) plan annual 5500 filing, assuring correctness. Part of this is taking the role/responsibility of signing the annual 5500 filing.

Sign-Off Loans

Loan requests come directly to the CBC team. We can review employee accounts, assure the request is in good order, and sign approval for the loan.

Guarantee Notices

Eligible employees must recieve notices from the plan sponsor on a timely manner regarding the plan specifics, fees, and funds. Most of these are provided by the recordkeeper & CBC 3(16) assures employees have recieved them.

Comprehensive Benefit Consultants liability assumption with our 3(16) service is dependant on access to timely payroll information. For CBC to assume complete liability, we require access to client's payroll accounts. Otherwise, liability is limited to timely payroll census uploads to CBC.
