2008 EA-2B syllabus released

February 7th, 2008

The syllabus is now available on the SOA web site:

Here is the short list of changes:

I’m not sure why they added the 2008 PBGC-1 form, because  the PBGC hasn’t figured it out yet. Here is some text from the PBGC web site explaining why the 2008 PBGC-1 form is not yet available:

“Please note that only Estimated Flat-rate Premium Filings for plan year 2008
are allowed at this time due to the substantial changes that are required as
a result of the Pension Protection Act of 2006, particularly with respect to
the variable-rate premium. My PAA will be updated for these changes to allow
sufficient time to prepare and submit final e-filings (now called Comprehensive
Filings). The earliest Comprehensive Filing due date for calendar year plans in
2008 is October 15, 2008. (01/10/08)”
