IRS Record

WSDLs and Symitar Records > IRS Record

Each IRS record stores the total of all contributions to and distributions from a specific type of tax-deferred share [such as IRA, Deferred Comp, SEP, Keogh, 401(k)] for one Social Security Number.

These abbreviations are used in the following list of IRS record fields:

  • CTY = Current Tax Year
  • PTY = Previous Tax Year
  • PTY-1 = Previous Tax Year minus 1

Note: There are currently many IRA types available. As a result, some fields may have different meanings, depending on the type of IRA with which they are associated. Where such differences occur, multiple links point to the same section, where the distinction between meanings is explained in detail.

This document contains the field name, field description, field number, mnemonic, data type, and default information for each field. Other pertinent information includes:

**Source**  
Indicates where the data in the field comes from:

**User-entered**  
    The user creates the information in this field.

**System-entered**  
    A system process populates the value for the field. This value can include data transmitted by the ATM network, when applicable.

**System-calculated**  
    The system calculates but does not store the value of the field each time the field appears on an inquiry or file maintenance screen.

Note: For SymXchange TransactionService transactions involving IRS contribution types other than standard current tax year contributions, set the Allow All IRS Contributions? parameter in SymXchange Client Parameters to Yes.

The IRS record includes the following fields which are also defined in this topic:

Data Type Descriptions
(00) Normal
This share must be reported to the IRS as a normal share.

(01) IRA
This IRS record is for IRA (Individual Retirement Account) shares.

(02) Deferred Comp
This IRS record is for deferred comp shares.

(03) SEP
This IRS record is for SEP (Simplified Employer Pension) shares.

(04) Keogh
This IRS record is for Keogh shares.

(05) 401K
This IRS record is for 401(k) shares.

(06) Roth IRA
This IRS record is for Roth shares.

Note: Roth Conversion IRAs and Roth IRAs no longer have to be separated. You can set this field to this option for both types of accounts.

(07) SIMPLE IRA
This IRS record is for SIMPLE IRA shares.This IRS record is for SIMPLE IRA shares.

(08) Coverdell ESA
This IRS record is for Coverdell ESA shares.

(09) Archer MSA
This IRS record is for Archer MSA shares.

(10) Medicare MSA
This IRS record is for Medicare MSA shares.

(11) Roth Conversion
This IRS record is for converted Roth IRA shares rather than a new Roth IRA.

Note: Roth Conversion IRAs and Roth IRAs no longer have to be separated. Although you can continue to set this field to this option, you can set this field to the (6) Roth IRA option for both types of accounts. The field value of (11) Roth Conversion may be discontinued in the future.

(12) Conduit IRA
This IRS record is for a traditional IRA that contains only funds rolled over from a qualified employer plan and not mixed with any other IRA funds.

(13) Governmental 457
This IRS record is for a Deferred Comp plan that is a Governmental 457 plan.

(14) Single HSA
This IRS record is for a Health Savings Account for an individual.

(15) Family HSA
This IRS record is for a Health Savings Account for a family.

There must be one IRS record for each type of tax-deferred share for each Social Security Number in the account. The value in this field in an IRS record must match the value in the IRS Code field in its corresponding Share records.

Example:
If there are two IRA shares (IRS Code fields set to (1) IRA in both Share records), one for Social Security Number 111-11-1111 and one for Social Security Number 222-22-2222 in the same account, the account must have two IRS records with the IRS Code fields set to (1) IRA: one to store all contributions to and distributions from both IRA shares for Social Security Number 111-11-1111, and another to store all contributions to and distributions from the single IRA share for Social Security Number 222-22-2222.

For the special case of option (08) Coverdell ESA, see Setting Up a Coverdell ESA Share.

IRS Plan

This field can store a code that indicates the unique IRS plan, defined by your financial institution, that is used for matching criteria between this record and the IRA Share record (Share record with the value in the Share Type field set to IRA Share).

Data Type Descriptions
0
This plan is your standard IRA plan. The IRA Share record is not part of a SEP plan and does not use an IRS plan for matching with this IRS record.

1–99
The IRA Share record is part of a SEP plan and uses this IRS plan (defined by your financial institution) for matching with this IRS record.

Symitar suggests that you select unique IRS Plan numbers for each kind of plan you offer that must be reported separately. For example, you can set up all IRA Share records under the SEP plan with a value of 01 in this field. Then, set up all regular IRA Share records with a value of 00 in this field.

The primary purpose of this field is to distinguish between IRA Share records that are part of a Simplified Employer Pension (SEP) plan (the IRS Code field set to (03) SEP) and IRA Share records that are not part of a SEP plan, by connecting specific Share records to a particular IRS record. Whenever the system accumulates contribution and distribution amounts in IRS records, it determines which IRS record to use based on the following matching criteria:

  • The Taxpayer ID field in the IRS record must match the effective SSN for the Share record.
  • The IRS Code field in the IRS record must match the IRS Code field in the Share record.
  • The IRS Plan field in the IRS record must match the IRS Plan field in the Share record.

Therefore, the combination of the values in the Taxpayer ID, IRS Code, and IRS Plan fields must be unique for every IRS record in an account. If your financial institution uses IRS plans, this field lets you have more than one IRA plan in each member account. Each is reported separately to the IRS. The IRS Reporting batch program does not consolidate information from two or more shares or IRS records or accounts if the values in the IRS Plan fields are different.

Tip: You can create a help file in Help File Control to list the IRS plans used at your financial institution. Once you create a help file, you can click Shift+F1 at the prompt to display the list of IRS plans used at your financial institution.

Req Min Distrib <CTY>

The system calculates the RMD for Traditional, SEP, SIMPLE, and Conduit IRA accounts the first time you run the Close Day Processing batch program in a new calendar year. This calculated value replaces any existing value in the field. The system stores the calculated value only for original IRA owners who are alive and reach the mandatory distribution age by the end of the tax year. The system computes this value as follows:

Fair Market Value for PTY / Minimum Distribution Divisor from Uniform Lifetime Table

If your financial institution purchased Symitar’s IRA RMD Recalculation edit run, you can store amounts calculated by this edit run in IRS records in addition to Tracking records. Call Symitar Support to request an edit modification to add this option.

The system calculates the required minimum distribution based on the information contained in the IRS Holder Birth Date and IRS Holder Spouse Birth Date fields. The system selects the table with the lowest RMD amount to use, (1) Uniform Table or (2) Joint Life Table.

(1) Uniform Table
The system calculates the required minimum distribution for the IRA holder based on the uniform lifetime life expectancy table in IRS Publication 590-B.

(2) Joint Life Table
The system calculates the required minimum distribution for the IRA holder whose spouse is more than 10 years younger and the sole beneficiary of their IRAs based on the Joint Life and Last Survivor life expectancy table in IRS Publication 590. For this option to calculate properly, the IRS Holder Birth Date and IRS Holder Spouse Birth Date fields must be filled in.

The system calculates the RMD for Traditional, SEP, SIMPLE, and Conduit IRA accounts the first time you run the Close Day Processing batch program in a new calendar year. The calculated amount is stored in the Req Min Distrib <CTY> field.

One of the ways the system uses this field is to calculate the required minimum distribution (RMD) for Traditional, SEP, SIMPLE, and Conduit IRAs. The calculation occurs only if you set the IRS Code to (14) Single HSA or (15) Family HSA in the IRS record. Enter the birth date of the IRS holder for HSA Share records. The system checks the date in this field to determine if the IRS holder is eligible for a catch-up contribution (additional elective deferrals made by eligible participants aged 55 or over). If you do not enter a date, the system checks the birth date from a Name record with a matching Social Security Number.

IRS Holder Spouse Birth Date

This field stores the birth date of the spouse of an IRS holder with a tax-deferred Health Savings Account (HSA) Share record (Share record with the value in the IRS Code field set to (14) Single HSA or (15) Family HSA).

One of the ways the system uses the IRS Holder Spouse Birth Date field is to calculate the required minimum distribution (RMD) for Traditional, SEP, SIMPLE, and Conduit IRA. This field is available only in two situations:

  • You set the IRS Code field in the IRS record to (15) Family HSA.
  • You use the Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) edit run with the Oldest Beneficiary is Spouse field of the IRA RMD Recalculation Info Tracking record set to (0) No.

So that the system can use this field in IRS-related calculations, enter the birth date of the IRS holder’s spouse for HSA Share records. The system checks the date in this field for two reasons:

  • To determine if the IRS holder’s spouse is eligible for a spousal catch-up contribution (an additional elective deferral made by eligible participants aged 55 or over).

    If you enter a date here, the system calculates the spousal contribution, depending on the spouse’s age. If you do not enter a date, the system does not calculate a spousal catch-up contribution to this share.

  • To calculate a required minimum distribution when the spouse is not the oldest beneficiary.

  • (14) Single HSA
  • (15) Family HSA

This field specifies the date of first participation for Roth IRA, SIMPLE IRA, Archer MSA, HSA, or Roth Conversion IRA shares. Manually update this field when you perform a transfer or rollover.

Set the value of this field through manual file maintenance, or the system fills it with the date of the first contribution. This field is used to determine if the account is opened during the current reporting period for IRS Form 8851.

  • Conduit IRA
  • SEP
  • Keogh
  • Archer MSA
  • HSA
  • Medicare Advantage MSA

The system computes the limits for other tax-deferred shares.

You can also make an entry in this field to override the system-calculated value in the Actual Max Contribution field for the following types of retirement plans:

  • Traditional
  • Roth
  • SIMPLE IRA
  • Coverdell ESA
  • 401(k)
  • HSA
  • Deferred Comp
  • SEP

Note: If you override the system-calculated limits from the Actual Max Contribution field, make sure that the limit you enter includes catch-up contributions for members who turn 50 years old before the end of the tax year. Also, if you use this field instead of the Actual Max Contribution field for these IRAs, the system will not update the Actual Max Contribution field with future changes in government regulations. To ensure compliance with government regulations, leave this field set at the default value of 0.00 for Traditional, Roth, SIMPLE IRA, Coverdell IRA, 401(k), HSA, and Deferred Comp retirement plans.

For tax-deferred share types not listed in the limits table, the system uses the value you enter in the Max Contribution field. You can also enter a value in that field to override this system-calculated value.

If the IRS record Max Contribution field equals 0.00, the Actual Max Contribution field is calculated using the associated value in the Current Tax Year <CTY> Contrib Limit parameter and the Current Tax Year <CTY> Catch-Up Limit parameter in the IRS Contribution Limit Parameters in Parameter Manager, based on the member’s age.

You can access this field in PowerOn specfiles and SymXchange inquiries.

The system includes catch-up contributions in this calculation only if the value in the Max Contribution field is 0.00.

The owner is identified by matching the IRS record Taxpayer ID field to the Name record SSN/TIN field. The owner’s age is determined by subtracting the current year from the Name record Birth Date field year.

For HSA plans, the system calculates the value in this field based on the following IRS Code field values:

  • For option (14) Single HSA, the system adds the standard maximum for the year and the amount of catch-up contribution permitted (if any). A member 55 or older can make a catch-up contribution if eligible.
  • For option (15) Family HSA, the system adds the standard maximum contribution for the year and the amount of the catch-up contribution permitted (if any), to this amount. A member or the member’s spouse, who is 55 or older, can make a catch-up contribution, if eligible. If a member’s spouse is 55 or older, the amount of their catch-up contribution must be reported under the spouse’s SSN.

Note: When calculating the value in this field, the system does not consider these criteria used by the IRS:

  • The terms of the qualifying high-deductible health plan
  • The date the share became eligible for contributions
  • The date the member opened the share
  • Pro-rated months eligible for catch-up contributions for the year a shareholder or spouse turns 55

For example, if a member makes a death distribution (distribution Code 4 - Death), the number 4 is stored in this field. Depending on the value in this field, the distribution code may differ.

When performing a void or share recast, you must perform file maintenance on this field.

Tip: When you perform a Share Withdrawal (SW) transaction to distribute funds from a tax-deferred share with any value in the IRS Code field other than (00) Normal, the system prompts the teller to select from a list of distribution codes.

If the transaction was a withdrawal (Action Code = W) from a tax-deferred share, the system updates the Last Distribution Type field as follows:

The fair market value of a tax-deferred share is the balance in the account as of December 31, which must be reported on 5498 forms. The system calculates the fair market value for a tax-deferred share the first time you run the Close Day Processing batch program in a new calendar year. The system computes this value as follows:

current share balances - dividends paid in the current year + share certificate penalties 
taken in the current year - all contributions in the current year + all distributions 
in the current year, including transfers to or from another institution

You can override this calculated value manually, but under normal circumstances, you should not revise this field.

Whenever a withdrawal with a distribution code of (14) Transfer to Another Institution is made from a share with the same IRS code and taxpayer ID as this IRS record, the system subtracts the transaction amount from this field. The system does not record transfers made with a distribution code of (15) Transfer Within this institution.

You should make withdrawals with this distribution code only if you deposit (contribute) the funds to a share covered by the same IRS record. Since you are transferring funds between two shares covered by the same IRS record, there is no change in the total balance of the accounts.
