Keeping Plans Qualified: Using the
Final Nondiscrimination Regulations                    page 13

maintain qualified status. At the heart of qualification are the nondiscrimina-

regulations - implemented for plan years beginning this year - affect their
plans.

lems - especially tax ones - than they solve. Another solution is available,
however, as the author demonstrates.
