I have an interesting situation with one of my brokers. Everything goes through him and I am considered a "ghost". Not only that, but getting information is quite something. I only get the information once a year, and several months after the year end at that.
The broker just informed me that the client's 2005 Safe Harbor contribution was not completely deposited...even as of today. They were a few hundred short of depositing all of the 2005 Safe Harbor contribution.
My question is...What will need to be done?
First and foremost is to get the money deposited. This I know.
Do they then owe the 10% excise tax? Would fair market adjustments need to be applied on that money?
Thank you for any help you can provide.
