5500 Preparation and Filing Resource

I was looking for recommendations to outsource completion of annual 5500 and preparation of the SAR. Who do you folks use?

    Typically your health insurance broker will handle that for you. 

    Internally, we do it for free as a service to our larger clients. 

    If you use a TPA, then they should be able to help you file as well.  

    If you would like a third party referral or have any other questions, send me an email, rmount@langgroup.com

    I attached two documents to help you if you wanted to try and do them in house. 

    Hope that helps!

  • For our 5500 for 401k we use a TPA  - TSC located in MN they have a relationship with our 401k vendor.

  • We've had good experience with EBC and Benefit Advantage.  Both get the filings ready, and can help with ERISA Wrap docs and other stuff like that.  Mostly, what I like about them, is they are very helpful during the process.

  • We can actually handle not only the prep & filing of the 5500 but take over as the fiduciary as well as help implement and manage the program.

    Would love to chat if you are interested
