What is the name of your state?PA
The company I worked for was bought out by another firm. Basicly everyone was rehired by the new firm. The question I have concerns the 401K account under the old firm. I was told that the old firm filed a form to the IRS for terminating the plan. The start date for the new firm was June 1 2004, I started asking when the funds in our old account would be distributed in October of 2004 and was told that they were still waiting for the determination letter from the IRS. Called the IRS today April 1, 2005 and found out that they didn't receive the termination form until Feb. 3, 2005 and that it can take another 6 to 12 months for a determination letter to be issued. Is there another way I can get these funds? The money came out of my paycheck and I haven't had access to it for 10 months now and it may be another year before I can. Thank you for any help.
