In April 2007, The IRS issued final regualations regarding the application of Internal Revenue Code Section 409A to plans and arrangements involving nonqualified deferred compensation plans. Such plans include provisions found in various employment-related documents.
The IRS announced on September 10, 2007, that it had extended the deadline for adoption of plan documents that comply with Section 409A from December 31, 2007 to December 31, 2008. Although this additional time to complete documentation provides welcome relief, it should be emphasized that some issues remain subject to the December 31, 2007 deadline.
