Career Path Services 403(b) Plan
Sponsored by Career Path Services, Spokane, WA
Form 5500 information is as filed by the plan administrator with the Department of Labor and may be amended. Figures reflect the plan year shown, not current balances. Form 5500 contains no individual account balances. Look up the original filing at EFAST2.
In the plan year ending 30 Jun 2025, Career Path Services 403(b) Plan covered 211 participants and held $8.8M in net assets. The plan is a 403(b) plan sponsored by Career Path Services of Spokane, Washington.
Net assets came to $41,758 per participant, well below the $60,185 median for defined contribution plans with 100 to 249 participants and well above the $24,581 median for defined contribution plans in administrative and support and waste management services. The figure is an average across everyone in the plan, including former employees with small balances; Form 5500 holds no individual account data.
The employer contributed $897K during the year, or $8,082 per active participant against a same-size median of $2,447; participants contributed $388K and $167K arrived as rollovers and other contributions. Benefits paid out totalled $446K.
Schedule C lists 5 service provider organisations paid $5,000 or more, with reported compensation of $106K: $502 per participant, well above the same-size median of $194. Administrative expenses charged to the plan were $68K. Schedule C does not capture every cost: fees netted from fund returns and fees the employer pays directly are outside it.
Across the filings on record, net assets went from $4.0M in 2016 to $8.8M in 2024 (up 121%), and participants from 140 to 211 (up 51%).
The independent accountant's opinion on the financial statements was unmodified (unqualified), from an audit whose scope was limited under ERISA section 103(a)(3)(C) to exclude investment information certified by a bank or insurer.

Questions and answers
How big is Career Path Services 403(b) Plan?
211 participants at the end of the plan year ending 30 Jun 2025, of whom 111 were active employees, with net assets of $8,811,023. Among defined contribution plans that places it in the 100 to 249 participants band, which held 21,996 plans in plan year 2024.
What does Career Path Services contribute per participant?
The filing reports $897,134 in employer contributions for the year, which is $8,082 per active participant; the median for plans of the same type and size was $2,447 in plan year 2024. Form 5500 reports the total only. It does not state the match formula, and the per-participant figure is an average, not any one person's contribution.
What fees does the plan pay and how do they compare?
Schedule C reports $105,829 in compensation to service provider organisations, $502 per participant or 1.2% of net assets. The same-size median among plans reporting any Schedule C compensation was $194 per participant. Administrative expenses on Schedule H were $67,871. Investment costs deducted inside mutual funds and other pooled vehicles are not itemised on Form 5500, so these figures are a floor rather than a full cost.
Who runs the plan?
The sponsor is Career Path Services. Recordkeeping or administration: Empower Advisory Group, LLC and Randall and Hurley, Inc.. Investment advisory or management: Empower Retirement Advisory Service. The financial statements were audited by Anastasi Moore Martin PLLC. Form 5500 also names the plan administrator's signer and other individuals; this site publishes organisations only.
Was the audit opinion unqualified?
The filing reports an unmodified (unqualified) opinion from a limited-scope audit, in which the accountant did not audit investment information certified by a bank or insurance company. Unmodified (formerly "unqualified") is the standard clean opinion.
How current is this, and does it show my balance?
This is the Form 5500 for the plan year 1 Jul 2024 to 30 Jun 2025, received by the Department of Labor on 14 Apr 2026. Filings are due seven months after the plan year ends, or nine and a half with an extension, so the public record always runs a year or more behind. It contains plan-level totals only: no individual balances, contributions or names of participants exist in the data.
