Church Plans and Sponsoring Plans

Q. A steeple church has a pre-school that is a participating non-qualified church-controlled organization (QCCO). The pre-school is under the EIN of the church.
 
When we restate our plan, we will be utilizing two different documents for them — the steeple church will be on one document, and the pre-school (as a non-QCCO) on another document. Obviously, the church will sponsor the “steeple church” plan. Will the steeple church also be the sponsor of plan that covers non-QCCO pre-school employees? Do we exclude employees who perform services for the non-QCCO from the church’s plan, and vice versa?

A.It could be done that way, or the school could adopt the separate plan.
