Deferred Compensation Regs Deferred

After delaying for one year new documentation requirements of IRC section 409A concerning nonqualified deferred compensation plans, the Service also extended transition relief for most other provisions until 2009. Notice 2007-86 providing the transition relief supersedes or modifies several provisions contained in Notice 2007-78. It does not affect, however, the latter notice’s guidance concerning predetermined cash-out features or restrictions on certain trusts and other arrangements.
