On August 3, 2022, in a welcome and surprising move, the IRS released Notice 2022-33, providing for an extension for qualified retirement plans to adopt amendments under the Setting Every Community Up for Retirement Enhancement Act of 2019 (“SECURE Act”), the Bipartisan Miners Act of 2019 (the “Miners Act”) (which provided defined benefit plans with an optional reduction in the minimum age for in-service distributions from age 62 to 59½), and the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”), the requirement s of which are described here, here, and here.

Specifically, non-governmental qualified plans (including non-collectively bargained plans) will have until December 31, 2025 to adopt any of the optional or required changes under the SECURE Act, Miners Act, and CARES Act.  Prior to this guidance, non-governmental and non-collectively bargained plans had until the last day of the plan year beginning on or after January 1, 2022 to adopt these amendments.  For calendar year plans that meant amendments had to be made by December 31, 2022. Collectively-bargained and governmental plans had until the last day of the plan year beginning on or after January 1, 2024.

This extension is welcome for many plan administrators and sponsors who are still waiting for final IRS guidance on many of the SECURE Act’s provisions, including required post-death distribution rules, rules governing the inclusion of long-term part-time employees, and more.  The IRS noted in Notice 2022-33 that it expects SECURE Act guidance to be issued with the 2023 Required Amendment list, so all changes under the SECURE, Miners, and CARES Act can be adopted by plan sponsors at the same time.

READING, Pa. — If you didn't get to enjoy David Sedaris' previous appearance in Reading, the Miller Center for the Arts is giving you another chance.

The practicing Area Community College theater announced Monday that Sedaris, a humor writer known for his sardonic wit and incisive social critiques, will return to its stage on Oct. 13 at 7:30 p.m.

Tickets will go on sale to the public this Friday, Aug. 5, at 10 a.m., and the Miller Center said they're sure to go fast.

"He is one of the iconic writers and personalities of our time," Tony DeMarco, executive director of the Miller Center and vice president for advancement at RACC, said in a news release. "It was the perfect show to add to our 15th Anniversary Year. Make sure to get your tickets early, he will be sure to sell out!"

Off stage, more than 16 million copies of Sedaris' books are in print. Among them is the recently released "The Best of Me" — a collection of 42 previously published stories and essays.

Sedaris can also be seen and heard on television and radio. In 2019, he became a regular contributor to "CBS Sunday Morning," and he can be heard annually on a series of live recordings on BBC 4, entitled "Meet David Sedaris."
