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.
Intended as an alternate retirement plan for small business owners and the self-employed, the SEP-IRA (Simplified Employee Pension Individual Retirement Account) allows you to put aside money for yourself and your employees even if you or they are already participating in a 401k or other retirement plan.
