Understanding IRC Sections 419(e) and 419A(f)(6) Plans

IRC Sections 419(e) and 419A(f)(6) Plans
For years life insurance agents and others have been selling ways to deduct life insurance in welfare benefit plans.  For years the IRS has been disallowing most of these plans on audit.
In Notice 2007-83, the IRS identified certain trust arrange­ments involving cash value life insurance policies, and sub­stantially similar arrangements, as listed transactions.  The IRS also issued related Revenue Ruling 2007-65 to address situa­tions where an arrangement is considered a welfare benefit fund but the employer's deduction for its contributions to the fund is denied in whole or in part for premiums paid by the trust on cash value life insurance policies.
