Payroll Deduction Program Checklist

provide a structure for employees to fund their own retirement.

to offer something in addition to a qualified retirement plan; an attractive
addition to any employer-sponsored benefit program.

used to fund a:
- Roth IRA
- Traditional
IRA
- Nonqualified
investments
- Education
IRA
- UTMA (Uniform
Transfer to Minors Act) account

employees to build their personal retirement savings.

Is It Right for My Business?
The
Payroll Deduction Program may be a good plan design for you if the following
statements match your retirement plan objectives and capabilities:
- I want
to be able to set up the program in addition to a qualified retirement
plan.
- I won't
be able to take a tax deduction for what the employees save, but that's
ok.
- I won't
have expenses to pay.
- An ongoing
administrative contact is not necessary. Support through an 800 phone
number is fine.
- I don't
want to bother with much annual compliance testing or IRS reporting.
