DIA-510 is a notice form used to report death when the employee left no surviving minor child. Within how many days must it be filed?

• A. 15
• B. 30
• C. 90
• D. 60

Answer: (D)

The item tests the filing deadline for the DIA-510, a notice used to report a death when there are no surviving minor children. The required window is 60 days from the date of death (or from when the death becomes known to the employer or plan administrator). This 60-day deadline ensures timely notification to the Division of Industrial Accidents and proper handling of the plan’s reporting obligations. Shorter time frames (like 15 or 30 days) are too tight for gathering necessary details, while a much longer window (90 days) could delay oversight and processing. Therefore, 60 days is the correct deadline.
