FAQ

Now that you are an S Corp, a Solo401K is usually the best retirement plan option. This is because the contribution limits are much higher than other retirement plans (Traditional IRA, Roth IRA).

As a business owner, you can have different types of retirement accounts to save for the future. This includes a Solo 401k, SEP IRA, SIMPLE IRA, traditional IRA, and a Roth IRA.

Defined benefit plans provide a fixed, pre-established benefit for employees at retirement. Employees often value the fixed benefit provided by this type of plan. On the employer side, businesses can generally contribute (and therefore deduct) more each year than in defined contribution plans.

The IRS has created rules and requirements for employers to establish defined-benefit plans. A company of any size can set up a plan, but it must file Form 5500 with a Schedule B annually. Furthermore, a company must hire an enrolled actuary to determine its plan's funding levels and sign Schedule B.

The S corporation issues a W-2 to the shareholder-employee just as it would to any employee. The shareholder-employee must include the wages on his or her federal income tax return. The company can then set up a defined benefit plan for employees of the corporation.

401(k) plan contributions If you are a common-law employee of the S corporation: you can make salary deferral contributions to the 401(k) plan based on your Form W-2 compensation; and. your employer can make matching or nonelective contributions to the plan based on your Form W-2 compensation as a common-law employee.

Single-member S-corporations can establish a solo 401(k) plan, also known as a one-participant 401(k) plan.

401(k) plan contributions If you are a common-law employee of the S corporation: you can make salary deferral contributions to the 401(k) plan based on your Form W-2 compensation; and. your employer can make matching or nonelective contributions to the plan based on your Form W-2 compensation as a common-law employee.

In fact, each year you decide whether, and how much, to contribute to your employees' SEP-IRAs. Generally, you do not have to file any documents with the government. Sole proprietors, partnerships, and corporations, including S corporations, can set up SEPs.

Calculating Solo 401k Contributions As an S-Corp owner, you can contribute up to $22,500 as an employee deferral for 2024, or $30,000 if you are aged 50 or older, directly from your W-2 wages. This contribution is deducted from your salary before taxes, reducing your taxable income for the year.
