Partner Compensation at Retirement
"When a partner from a firm retires, ... they receive some sort of retirement benefits from the firm.... [T]hese payments are similar to 409(a) payments but not 409(a) payments. If a retired partner returns to work as an employee but is still receiving retirement benefits as a retired partner, what is their eligibility for 401(k)? Employees and partners are eligible to participate in 401(k) though both have a different ways to contribute and being auto enrolled. The plan document has no specific mention of being excluded if retired partner is rehired as an employee. It's the retirement benefits they may be receiving is what is throwing this off."
