This measure opened the issue of what to do about slavery in border states that had not seceded or in areas that had been captured by the Union before the proclamation.

The IRS sets limits on after-tax contributions to your IRA. When it comes to retirement plans, a penny saved is not only a penny earned. Thanks to generous tax deductions and other government subsidies, it is also a penny invested. This holds true even when you invest after-tax money into an IRA.
To do so, you basically close your existing IRA and transfer its funds to the SEP IRA. Your existing IRA cannot be a Roth plan. A traditional IRA and a SEP IRA are both tax-deferral plans; you deduct your contributions from income for tax purposes, but you will pay taxes when you withdraw the funds at retirement.ou can claim a tax deduction for up to $5,000 a year contributed into a traditional IRA, but you can usually defer up to 10 percent of your pay in a SEP.
