EMPLOYEE BENEFITS E-UPDATE

Updated Cost of Living Adjustments for 2009 Issued for Your Retirement Plan Administration

The Internal Revenue Service has announced its annual cost of living adjustments for 2009.  To assist plan sponsors, Ice Miller's updated Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) chart  lists the cost of living adjustments to retirement plan limitations for the years 1996 through 2009.  We have included the adjusted limits, as well as Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation numbers, Federal income tax amounts, and Social Security and Medicare amounts, for the past 14 years as a handy reference tool.
