We’re enhancing our electronic delivery services of required participant statements and other important plan notices. Currently, new participants who provide a work and/or personal email address receive an initial paper notification by mail that includes information about e-delivery, including how to opt for paper delivery.
Beginning in September, statements, confirmations and plan disclosure documents for new participants with a work email provided by the plan sponsor will be delivered to the work email while the participant is active in accordance with the “wired at work” method permitted by the Department of Labor (DOL).* As a result of this change, new participants will no longer need to receive an initial paper notification by mail which may enable documents to be delivered more quickly.
Note: This enhancement does not impact current participants nor participants who only provide a personal email address. Participants who have already opted for paper delivery will continue to receive documents by mail. Additionally, no changes will be applied to 403(b) plans or plans set up with paper delivery.
Optional automated notice delivery
If a plan uses our optional automated plan notice delivery service, please note that these services will include the same changes.
