The downside of SEP IRAs is that employees must make equal contributions for all eligible employees and only employer contributions are allowed. Another downside is that just like with any IRA, SEP IRA rules require individuals to be at least 59 1/2 for withdrawals, or else you'll be taxed a 10% penalty.
Employees must be included in the SEP plan if they have: attained age 21; worked for your business in at least 3 of the last 5 years; received at least $750 in 2022; $650 in 2021 and 2022; $600 in compensation (in 2016 - 2020) from your business for the year.
Will a SEP IRA Reduce Taxes? For an employer, a SEP IRA will reduce taxes, but that's not so for an individual. SEP IRAs are funded by tax-deductible dollars and are limited to up to 25% of an employee's compensation or $69,000, whichever is less in 2024.
If you are self-employed, it's in your hands to set up a retirement plan for yourself. You have many options to choose from including an IRA/Roth IRA, SEP or SIMPLE IRA, but the best best choice, if you qualify, is the Solo 401(k) plan. Learn why! -- Learn more about the Solo 401(k): .
Simplified employee pension (SEP) Contribute as much as 25% of your net earnings from self-employment (not including contributions for yourself), up to $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).

Solo 401k plans are not typically classified as standard ERISA plans, because these plans are for business owners only. Solo 401k plans don't include non-owner employees, so there are certain titles of ERISA that don't apply to the Solo 401k.
All 403(b) plans are subject to Title I of ERISA unless an exemption applies.
Qualified plans include 401(k) plans, 403(b) plans, profit-sharing plans, and Keogh (HR-10) plans. Nonqualified plans include deferred-compensation plans, executive bonus plans, and split-dollar life insurance plans.
In general, retirement plans that are covered by ERISA are protected from creditors—and their lawsuits. A 401(k) is an ERISA-qualified plan, so it is likely protected if you get sued. There may be a few exceptions, such as charges brought by the federal government or if you allegedly wronged the plan.
