Employee Benefit Plan Audits

Audit Planning

A benefit plan audit can help larger plans file a complete and accurate annual return. Generally, a plan with 100 or more participants must have an annual audit as part of its Form 5500 filing requirement with the Department of Labor. The Employee Benefits Security Administration also requires certain other plans to have audits if they do not qualify for exemptions from the annual audit requirement.

If your Plan fits the requirements for an audit, finding a qualified accounting firm that understands the complexities of employee benefit plans can help ensure a thorough, successful audit process.
