SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Annual 

reporting to the Internal Revenue 

Service (IRS), the Employee Benefits 

Security Administration (EBSA), and 

the Pension Benefit Guaranty 

Corporation (PBGC) is required by law 

for most employee benefit plans. For 

example, section 4065 of the Employee 

Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 

requires annual reporting to PBGC for 

pension plans covered by title IV of 

ERISA. To accommodate these filing 

requirements, PBGC, IRS, and EBSA 

have jointly promulgated the Form 5500 

Series, which includes the Form 5500 

Annual Return/Report of Employee 

Benefit Plan and the Form 5500–SF 

Short Form Annual Return/Report of 

Small Employee Benefit Plan. 

The collection of information has 

been approved by OMB under control 

number 1212–0057 through March 31, 

2021. PBGC intends to request that OMB 

extend its approval, with modifications, 

for three years. An agency may not 

conduct or sponsor, and a person is not 

required to respond to, a collection of 

information unless it displays a 

currently valid OMB control number. 

PBGC is proposing modifications to 

the 2019 Schedule R (Retirement Plan 

Information), Form 5500–SF, and 

Schedule SB (Single-Employer Defined 

Benefit Plan Actuarial Information), and 

their related instructions. These 

proposed modifications affect some, but 

not all, single-employer defined benefit 

plans covered by Title IV of ERISA. 

PBGC also is proposing minor 

modifications to the Form 5500 Series to 

improve the accuracy of reported 

information. 

PBGC is proposing to modify 

Schedule R to obtain information from 

single-employer plans related to unpaid 

minimum required contributions. 

Single-employer plans are required to 

report the amount of unpaid minimum 

required contributions on Schedule SB 

and, in most cases, report additional 

information about the unpaid 

(‘‘missed’’) contributions to PBGC on 

the applicable PBGC form (i.e., Form 10 

or Form 200). In some cases, this PBGC 

reporting requirement is waived (e.g., if 

the contribution is made within 30 days 

of the due date). PBGC has found a 

significant number of plans that are 

required to file these PBGC form(s) do 

not. As part of its enforcement effort, 

PBGC regularly contacts plans that 

report unpaid contributions on 

Schedule SB if the applicable PBGC 

form is not received. With limited 

exception, PBGC cannot distinguish 

between plans that were required to 

report missed contributions and those 

that qualified for a regulatory waiver, 

and as a result, PBGC ends up 

contacting many plans for which 

reporting was waived. PBGC is 

proposing to modify Schedule R by 

requiring PBGC-insured single-employer 

plans that report unpaid minimum 

required contributions on Schedule SB 

to check a box indicating whether PBGC 

reporting of the missed contributions 

was waived or required (and if required, 

whether such reporting requirement has 

been satisfied). PBGC is proposing this 

addition of information to enable PBGC 

to limit its contact to plans that were 

required, but failed to, report 

information about unpaid contributions 

to PBGC. 

Because many small PBGC-insured 

plans are not required to complete 

Schedule R (i.e., plans that file Form 

5500–SF), PBGC also is proposing to 

add a similar question about missed 

contributions to Form 5500–SF. 

With regard to the Schedule SB form 

and instructions, PBGC is proposing to 

modify line 23 to eliminate three boxes 

representing mortality tables that are no 

longer applicable. 

PBGC estimates that it will receive 

approximately 23,900 Form 5500 and

June 27, 2018, Attachment A at 19–22 (Order No. 

4679). 

Form 5500–SF filings per year under 

this collection of information. PBGC 

further estimates that the total annual 

burden of this collection of information 

attributable to PBGC will be 1,200 hours 

and $1,531,000. 

PBGC is soliciting public comments 

to— 

• Evaluate whether the proposed 

collection of information is necessary 

for the proper performance of the 

functions of the agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility; 

• evaluate the accuracy of the 

agency’s estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information, 

including the validity of the 

methodologies and assumptions used; 

• enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and 

• minimize the burden of the 

collection of information on those who 

are to respond, including through the 

use of appropriate automated, 

electronic, mechanical, or other 

technological collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology, 

e.g., permitting electronic submission of 

responses.
