Hi- Have a client who is a active partner in a partnership. His portion of the partnership income is $180,000 which is classified as self-employed income. The partnership made the maximum $18,000 contribution on his behalf. On his personal return in addition to reporting this $18,000 contribution is he entitled to make a $5,500 IRA contribution or a SEP IRA contribution up the differential between $18,000 and approx 20% of $180,000?
Thanks in advance for the advice
