Simplified Employee Pension (SEP)
A SEP is similar to a profit sharing plan in terms of the
amount that can be contributed to the plan.
However, unlike a profit sharing plan, employer
contributions are deposited into an individual
retirement account in the name of the participant.
Withdrawal restrictions that generally apply to
profit sharing plans do not apply to these types of
accounts and the IRA rules govern instead.

A SEP can require as much as three years of
employment in the immediately preceding five
years. However, employees are considered to have
had a year of employment if they earn at least $450
in compensation. Once an employee meets the
specified requirements, they are fully vested in their
accounts when contributions are made.

Establishing a SEP can be as easy as completing an
IRS Form 5305-SEP. Tax returns are not required on
this type of plan; however, the plan sponsor may
need some assistance from a third party
administrator in order to accurately calculate the
contributions that can be made on an annual basis.
