“If it's a first-year audit, they usually take a little longer, as you can imagine. I get calls from people that this is a first audit and they say, ‘Can you do my audit tomorrow?’ I can start tomorrow, but I'm not going to finish it in a day. That's just not even possible. So you want to make sure that you talk to your auditor about timing.”

The information discussed in this episode includes:

  • A walkthrough of the general layout of a first-time 401(k), from first steps to closing out an audit
  • Important timing considerations to understand before beginning your audit to avoid costly delays
  • How best to prepare necessary documents in time for the audit to maximize efficiency
