Good article. I have found that the reason most of these people continue to be carried on the roles of 401(k) plans is because of incorrect addresses. With the IRS stopping it’s letter forwarding program in mid-2012, what is the most efficient way of finding/communicating with these participants?

Wonderful article, Mr. Leahy. I’ve been in the retirement plan industry (educating and enrolling participants) for almost eight years now and it’s refreshing to read such a well written article on a topic that doesn’t get a lot of attention. I even learned a few things in the process. :) Keep articles like this one coming!
