Question 50: A client of mine is being told by a salesman that a "SIMPLE IRA" plan can be sponsored by one of my client's corporations even though it would cover only the employees of that corporation, not others under common control. If the common control rules apply, the group has too many employees to be eligible to sponsor a SIMPLE IRA plan. The salesman says the rules have changed. Is that right? |
Answer: You are wise to question what the salesman is telling you. The rules are quite specific and have not changed on this point. |
