A SEP IRA is a useful retirement planning tool for small business owners. It can be established anytime before the business's tax filing deadline plus extensions and contributions can be made up until the tax filing deadline plus extensions too. The flexibility of plan set up and funding dates make the SEP IRA a favorite last minute tax planning tool.
Contributions are limited to the lesser of $45,000 or 25% of eligible compensation. You do not have to make a contribution every year but when you make contributions they must be based on an allocation formula and must not discriminate in favor of highly compensated employees. When you make contributions they must be allocated to all employees who worked during the year even those who left or died before the contribution was allocated.
