HB 843 Retirement and pensions; ensure compliance with federal laws and regulations; change certain provisions
In 2009/2010, legislation was passed to align Georgia law with the federal Internal Revenue Code. The IRS has required an additional change in Georgia law in order to keep ERS and TRS in compliance with IRS regulations as it relates to qualified pension plans. These changes are minor and impact the General Provisions (replaces detailed IRC 415 language with a statement that the retirement systems will comply with IRC 415 requirements), Georgia Legislative Retirement System (adds IRC 414 employer "pick-up" language) and the Georgia Judicial Retirement System (adds IRC 414 employer "pick-up" language).
HB 843 was assigned to the House Retirement Committee.
