When drawn as a population pyramid, age distribution can hint at patterns of growth. A top heavy pyramid, like the one for Grant County, North Dakota, suggests negative population growth that might be due to any number of factors, including high death rates, low birth rates, and increased emigration from the area.
If your 401(k) plan made hardship distributions that didnât follow the plan language, or if your plan doesnât have hardship language, find out how you can correct this mistake. The rules for hardship distributions from 403(b) plans are similar to those for hardship distributions from 401(k) plans.
Hardship withdrawals are limited to two per calendar year and can only be taken from assets held in accounts at Fidelity. Participants should call the Fidelity Retirement Service Center at 1.800.343.0860 to request a hardship withdrawal. Participants must submit appropriate supporting documentation to Fidelity prior to being approved to receive a hardship distribution. If the distribution is approved, a suspension of the participantâs voluntary contributions (and any associated match) will be implemented for a minimum of six months.
