Significant Changes in the Laws have made Designer DB Plus™ a powerful tool for High Income and Self-Employed Business Owners

Secure Act of 2020 Congress realized that America has a retirement planning crisis. So, to incentivize small business owners to offer retirement plans, they raised the tax credit limit from $1500 to $16,500. This dollar-for-dollar tax credit makes most plans a zero-setup cost for the employer.

CalSavers Retirement Savings Trust Act. It requires California businesses with five or more California-based employees (one of whom is at least 18 years old) to offer either an employer-sponsored retirement plan or the state-sponsored retirement plan to their workers.

California implemented a new mandatory law requiring all companies with more than five employees to offer a retirement plan to their workers by June 30, 2022. Companies that don’t will be required to enroll in CalSavers, the state-sponsored individual retirement account (IRA), or face fines.

Although California was the first state to pass legislation related to mandatory retirement plans, it’s not the only state to do so. Similar laws exist or are being implemented in several places, including in CO, CT, IL, MD, MA, ME, NJ, NY, and OR. In addition, many other states are actively exploring a state-sponsored retirement option.and Defined Benefit plans
