SEP Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs)

Get Started
  • Overview

    Offering a retirement plan is easy for you and your employees…

    A SEP Plan is available to all types of businesses, including tax-exempt entities and state and local governments, but is ideal for self-employed individuals and small businesses.

     

    • Contributions are made to participants’ Traditional IRAs
    • Employer contributions are deductible by the employer
    • Employer contributions are always discretionary

    Eligibility

    As an employer, you may set the following employee eligibility requirements as long as they apply to all employees, including you. (You can also choose to be less restrictive or not apply any restrictions.)

    • Employees must be 21 or older
    • Employees must have worked three of the immediately preceding five years
    • Employees must earn at least $650 in compensation for 2021 and 2022
    • Certain nonresident aliens and union employees may be excluded from this plan

    Contributions

    Only employer contributions are allowed in a SEP plan and they must be made on behalf of all eligible employees. The deadline to make – and deduct – contributions each year is your business’s federal tax return due date, including extensions.

    The annual contribution limit per employee is the lesser of:

    • 25% of the employee’s compensation (up to a defined compensation cap)
    • $58,000 for 2021 ($61,000 for 2022)

    We have a plan to fit your business
