Contribution for sep ira and roth ira together

If age 50 or older your total traditional and Roth IRA amount is $8,000. But in addition you can contribute separately to a SEP IRA. 

  • If you're self-employed, your contributions are generally limited to 20% of your net income. (Net compensation for self-employed individuals is generally the net profit from IRS Schedule C reduced by the deductible self-employment tax. The eligible compensation limit, indexed for inflation by the IRS, is $345,000 for 2024 or $350,000 for 2025.)

Keep in mind that, absent other compensation from a W-2 employer, the sum of your traditional SEP IRA contribution, personal traditional IRA contribution, Roth IRA contribution and the deductible portion of self-employment taxes is also not permitted to exceed your net profit from self employment.
