Here is how the SRS is computed for a retiree whose MRA is age 56 and who retires under FERS with 30 years of civilian service and an estimated age 62 Social Security benefit of $1200 a month. 1  The FERS service is divided by 40. 2  The age 62 Social Security benefit is multiplied by the fraction derived above.
The IRS allows you to combine money in a SEP IRA with money in a 401(k) plan, either by moving the SEP IRA money to the 401(k) or the 401(k) money to the SEP IRA.
Both a regular IRA and a SEP-IRA allow you to put money aside for retirement, but the rules governing those plans are different. You can only contribute to a traditional or a Roth IRA if you have earned income, making these plans perfect for traditional workers.
