| Part-time employee can't use SEP or SIMPLE IRA? My wife is employed part-time by her family's business. They have about 75 employees, and she's an officer in the company. Other family members who work there full-time receive contributions to a SEP, and my wife has been told she cannot because she's part-time. I don't believe she would meet the definition of highly compensated. I've done some hunting on the web but can't find this as a restriction... is it true that she can't contribute because she's part-time? If not, can somebody point me in the direction of something authoritative that would allow us to enlighten their accountant? Thanks, Steve nospamsam1 then an at sign yahoo then a period com (my posting e-mail address is bogus to help eliminate spam) |
