Employee Benefit Plans

Performing audits of employee benefit plans requires expertise not found in many accounting firms.

Employee Benefit PlansAudits of financial statements of employee benefit plans must be performed not only in accordance with professional auditing standards, but in accordance with the Federal guidelines established by the U.S. Department of Labor under ERISA (the Employee Retirement Income Security Act). These guidelines proscribe not only the information to be presented, but specific audit procedures to be performed during the engagement. 

Employee Benefit PlansYour benefit plan’s compliance to these rules should be trusted only to professionals that understand this specialty area, including the "80 to 120 Participant Rule" and the advantages of performing a limited scope audit rather than a full scope audit.

We understand the compliance rules and can provide you with confidence that your plan’s required financial reporting to the Department of Labor will be done in accordance with the law.

We have a dedicated team that performs:

  • 401k plan audits, including limited and full scope audits
  • 403b plan audits for not-for-profit organizations, including limited and full scope audits
  • Defined benefit plan audits, including limited and full scope audits
  • Employee stock ownership plan audits
  • Preparation of Form 5500

We perform these employee benefit plan services for our audit and tax clients, as well as clients of other firms that do not have the necessary expertise.   Put our experienced and qualified professionals to work for you!  Click here to get started!
