Frequently Asked Questions
To get you an accurate quote, we’ll typically ask about your plan type, participant count, whether you’re currently working with another auditor, and your Form 5500 filing history. The more of this you have on hand, the faster we can turn around a precise number rather than a rough estimate.
Cost depends on a few factors: how complex your plan is, how many participants you have, and what type of plan you’re running. There’s no one-size-fits-all number, which is exactly why we provide a transparent, competitive proposal built around your specific plan rather than a generic price list.
Most audits wrap up in six to ten weeks, though the timeline depends on how complex your plan is and how quickly plan documents and participant data are available. If you’re working toward a Form 5500 filing deadline, it’s worth starting the conversation early so timing doesn’t become the thing you’re racing against.
