PBGC – Special Financial Assistance Non-Priority Group Application Process

On March 8, 2023, the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation posted guidance for eligible multiemployer plans seeking to apply for Special Financial Assistance during the non-priority group application period, which began on March 11, 2023. In recognition of its capacity constraints, the PBGC has temporarily closed the e-Filing portal and is accepting requests to be placed on a waiting list for plans seeking to apply for SFA. Additional guidance on the non-priority group application process can be found on the PBGC’s website:  https://www.pbgc.gov/arp-sfa/sfa-application-guidance-non-priority-group-plans
