Top Solo 401(k) Plan Provider - IRA Financial Group - Announces Strong Demand for Solo 401(k) Plan With Non-Deductible Contribution Option
PRWeb - Sun Jun 05, 7:01AM CDT
IRA Financial Group, the leading provider of checkbook control self-directed Solo 401(K) plan announces string demand for the Solo 401k plan with a non-deductible Contribution option. The advantage of using a Solo 401(k) plan, which includes a nondeductible contribution option, is that it allows one to reach the annual contribution limit much quicker. Under the Solo 401(k) plan Non-Deductible Contribution tax rules, after tax deferrals (not Roth but not pre-tax) can be made dollar-for-dollar up to $53,000 of $59,000, including other plan contributions (employee deferrals and profit sharing). For example, a self-employed 40 year old individual earned $100,000 in 2016, he or she would be able to make a maximum employee deferral contribution of $18,000 in pre-tax or Roth and make an after tax contribution dollar-for dollar equal to $35,000, the difference between $53,000 (the maximum annual 401(k) contribution for 2016) and $18,000, the maximum employee deferral contribution limit. Those contributions can be then be converted to Roth without tax. Unfortunately, not all Solo 401(k) plans allow for nondeductible contributions, but IRA Financial Group's 401(k) plan documents do.
