Keogh Who Can Establish a Keogh? Any person who has "net earnings from self-employment" is eligible to establish a Keogh Plan. "Net earnings from self-employment" is defined as earned income (as opposed to investment income) derived from an unincorporated (sole-proprietorship or partnership) trade, business, or profession. A Keogh Plan is established by an employer, and therefore, in the case of a partnership, all partners must agree to the establishment of the plan. However, once the plan is established, neither "owner-employees" nor "self-employed persons" are required to participate unless they so desire. If an employer establishes a Keogh Plan, all full-time common-law employees who have completed two years of service must be covered under the plan. A full-time employee is one whose regular and customary employment is for 1,000 hours or more during a 12-month period. How Much Can Be Contributed? For the year 2010, the maximum annual tax-deductible contribution which the employer may make on behalf of each participant in the plan is the lesser of 25 percent of the participant's earned income or $49,000; contributions of a smaller percentage or amount may be provided for in the plan document. Our Keogh is based on a money purchase pension plan in a fixed annuity product. Guaranteed Safety No matter how market conditions change, you will never lose your initial investment. A fixed annuity has minimum interest guarantees and cannot experience negative growth. Contact your Farm Bureau Insurance agent for more information.
