IRS Gives Guidance on Heart Act Changes

22. February 2010 14:28

The IRS has issued question-and-answer guidance on the recent changes to the Code by the Heroes Earnings Assistance and Relief Tax Act of 2008 (HEART Act). This Act’s changes enhance 401(k) and other benefits for military personnel in qualified military service.

The guidance consists of 20 questions and answers. Some of the areas the Q&As cover are:

  • Survivor and Disability Retirement Benefits With Respect to Military Service
  • Differential Wage Payments
  • In-Service Distributions

Those with plans covering employees on active military duty should review these Q&As very carefully because they make clear some areas that have been gray before.
