If you have a signed agreement, you can hire an attorney and sue the employer for breach of contract. However, if you do so, you will likely need to seek other employment.

Do chefs get a 401K?

Any employee, regardless of the type of work he or she performs, is eligible for a 401k if the employer offers it. An employer is not required to offer a 401k, however. If an employer-sponsored plan (401k, 403b, SEP IRA, etc.) is not available, often individuals will contribute to a Traditional IRA or Roth IRA.

Can you have both a regular IRA and a roth IRA?

Provided you meet the compensation requirements and the income limitations for each type of IRA, you may contribute to both a Roth and a regular IRA. However, the combined amount may never exceed $5,000 (or $6,000 if you are 50 or older). Therefore, should a 45-year old be eligible and choose to contribute $3,500 to his Roth IRA, the most he could contribute to a regular IRA for the same tax year is $1,500.


Can you contribute to a Traditional IRA and a Roth IRA?

Yes, but combined contribution limits apply. For 2008 the maximum contribution amount is $5,000 for individuals under 50 years of age and $6,000 for those over 50. If you are under 50 and contribute $2,000 to your Roth IRA then you can only contribute $3,000 to your Traditional IRA. For a traditional IRA, you no longer can contribute after the age of 70 1/2 (RMD checks in). For Roth, you can contribute forever since no RMD are taken from this type of IRA account.


Can you contribute to a Roth IRA after you have retired?

You cannot contribute more to your IRA than the amount of your "compensation income." Compensation income is the taxable portion of your wages/salary, net self-employment, and alimony. Any amount shown in box 1 of a W-2 minus the amount shown in box 11 of the same W-2 is automatically considered taxable compensation income. So if you are not doing some kind of work or receiving alimony, you can't contribute. There is no age limit for contributions to a Roth IRA. People over 70 1/2 cannot contribute to a traditional IRA.


Can you contribute to a SEP IRA if you are over 71?

No, you cannot contribute to a SEP IRA if you are over 71, even if you are still working. However, you can still contribute to a traditional IRA if you have earned income.
