IRS: Just One Annual Actuarial Certification, Please

One Annual Actuarial Certification is enough, thank you, the IRS reminds multiemployer plan actuaries. The IRS issued the reminder in a March 16 update of its webpage concerning Multiemployer Annual Actuarial Certifications.

Multiemployer plan actuaries must complete an Annual Actuarial Certification of the plan’s funding status, and it must be submitted to the IRS no later than 90 days after the beginning of the plan year.

The IRS says that it has been receiving duplicate certifications from the same plan for the same plan year, noting that duplicate certifications create administrative issues.Instead of sending a certification more than once, the IRS suggests that those who wish to confirm delivery use the U.S. Postal Office’s Certified Mail service for mailed certifications and the confirmation page for faxed certifications. Certifications may be submitted in the following ways:


  • Fax: 855-215-7122

  • Mail:
