John Bowens outlines the pros and cons of a Simplified Employee Pension (SEP) Plan.

SEP Eligibility
Any employer—whether a corporation, partnership, or selfemployed individual—may establish the plan, even if there is only one employee.

Employees must meet ALL of the following requirements:

Be at least 21 years of age;
Have worked for the business during any three of the past five years; and
Have earned the $600 annual minimum required compensation.
Spouses and children may also participate in the plan and open their own SEP IRAs—as long as they are employees of the company and meet the income requirements.
