Rollover Policy

Thursday, April 28th, 2005

If you are visiting this website, you probably have a balance in the DAP but this news could be helpful to a friend who has left the plan since 1993. Over the years many pilots have rolled their balance from the DAP to an IRA for any number of reasons. Unless the participant left a balance in the DAP, they were not allowed to return to the DAP with the previous distribution. That policy has been changed by the DAP Board of Directors. The DAP will now accept qualified rollovers from any former DAP participant regardless of whether or not they left a balance in this plan. There are many IRS rules that apply to qualify a rollover back to the plan. If you or a friend who is a former DAP participant are interested in a rollover back to the DAP, please call the Directed Account Plan office at 314-739-7373 for the details. IRAs that contain other than DAP assets (i.e. – your own IRA contributions) do NOT qualify for rollover back into the DAP. Tell a friend!
