Contribute up to an additional 25% of your net earnings from self-employment for total contributions of $69,000 for 2024 ($66,000 for 2023, $61,000 for 2022; $58,000 for 2021; $57,000 for 2020 and $56,000 for 2019), including salary deferrals.
Some of the most common benefits available to 1099 workers are: 401(k) and retirement plans. Health benefits, including group health insurance and health stipends. Travel benefits and mileage reimbursement.
In Pennsylvania, if the distribution code on Form 1099-R Distributions From Pensions, Annuities, Retirement or Profit-Sharing Plans, IRAs, Insurance Contracts, etc. shows as "7" for normal distribution, then the distribution amount will not transfer to the PA-40 form or be included in gross income on the state return.
There are five main choices for the self-employed or small-business owners: an IRA (traditional or Roth), a Solo 401(k), a SEP IRA, a SIMPLE IRA or a defined benefit plan.
When you're self-employed, you can save for retirement with tax-advantaged accounts like a SEP IRA, self-employed 401(k), SIMPLE IRA, or Fidelity Advantage 401(k)℠. A health savings plan (HSA) is another potential option for long-term savings, particularly since savings are not use it or lose it and can grow over time.
An employer can offer benefits to a 1099 worker, but they're not required to do so. An employer may not require that a 1099 employee work exclusively for them, and the work must fit with the employee's other commitments.
SEP IRA. Best for: Self-employed people or small-business owners with no or few employees. Contribution limit: The lesser of $69,000 in 2024, or up to 25% of compensation or net self-employment earnings, with a $345,000 limit on compensation that can be used to factor the contribution.
You might assume that you don't have access to a 401(k) plan if you're a freelancer or an independent contractor but that isn't the case. You don't have to go without a tax-advantaged retirement savings plan. You can sign up for what's called a solo 401(k) or a self-employed 401(k).
You're eligible to open a solo 401(k) if you're self-employed and don't employ others. A couple running a business together also qualifies. You can contribute to your solo 401(k) as both employer and employee. You can choose between a traditional plan or a Roth plan.
