SIMPLE IRA Plan

If a business offers an exisitng SIMPLE IRA plan can it have a 1 year waiting period to be eligible for the exisitng plan, for a new hire? or if the plan exist’s is everyone eligible based upon the limited eligibility requirements selected on the 5304 or 5305 form section 1.:b (1), (2) such as:
– current comp expected 5k and prior year comp $0 and in 0 prior years.

No, new hires must be eligible based on the current plan’s requirements. However, those requirements can be changed for next year with the annual Notice resulting in the new hire(s) no longer being eligible in 2024.
