Representatives of the National Tax Sheltered Accounts Associations and the American Society of Pension Professionals & Actuaries have urged the IRS to include Section 403(b) plan documents in the agency's pre-approved plan program. The sponsors of these plans include public schools and charitable organizations. The reps are concerned that if the IRS does not add 403(b) arrangements to the pre-approved program, it would do a major disservice to the 403(b) community and the goal of compliance with tax laws.
