Attendees will receive instructions about how to make corrections and use the Voluntary Fiduciary Correction Program (VFCP).
Plan sponsors may learn if they are eligible for relief from Internal Revenue Service (IRS) excise taxes and how they might pay their retirement plan the amount they would otherwise owe in excise tax.
