Kevin Newby\, Account Director\, joins to lead live Q&A\, drawing on his experience helping clients navigate these situations in real time.\n\nWalk Away With: \n\nA working understanding of how Section 125 and 105(h) nondiscrimination tests actually work — and why they fail\nThe plan design choices most likely to trigger a failed test\nThe corrective options still available if you catch a failure early — before the plan year closes\n\n  \nThis is session 3 of 3 in our renewal season series\, “Fined.
