Plan Service Center FAQs

Plan level assets — such as forfeitures — require your continued review and utilization. Your Plan Document outlines the provisions permitted by your plan, on when and how to utilize these assets. These assets may include employer contributions, unallocated plan assets and unclaimed property (uncashed checks). To determine the amount of Plan level assets in your plan requiring your review, log into the Plan Services Center at www.psc.metlife.com and navigate to Plan > Overview > Summary. Scroll down to Plan Information & status and select Plan-level balances and you will see a list of the types of Plan level assets currently available in your Plan.

Review any plan level assets, in conjunction with your Plan Document provisions and provide appropriate direction to MetLife.  You may also want to consult with your legal counsel or tax advisor, to determine the actions to take with regard to these assets.
