Guest cfpinyo Posted December 8, 2010 Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 i have a pulmonary doctor who earns directors fees from a local hospital. He receives a 1099 for these services and he is not employed there. He also owns his own medical llc and has elected entity status as a corp. Doctor wants to max fund a SEP for his director fees but TPA says no since he owns 100% of his entity and has employees and receives a W-2 for income paid by his entity for professional services. Is this correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K2retire Posted December 8, 2010 Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 The LLC and sole prop. (director's fee) are a controlled group, meaning they must be treated as a single employer for plan purposes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any suggestions on how he can max out contributions and limit contributions for his employees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K2retire Posted December 9, 2010 Report Share Posted December 9, 2010 My knowledge of SEPs wouldn't fill a thimble. But in that situation I've worked with many cross tested 401(k) plans. some paired with DB plans. This typically only works if the owner is older than some (perhaps most) of the employees are significantly younger than the owner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
