> Not if your spouse works for an employer that offers a 401k.

Do you have a citation for this?

I'll offer a citation from the IRS that strongly suggests (though does not 100% prove) this is not the case:

"Can I set up a SEP for my self-employment income if I participate in my employer's retirement plan?

Yes, you can set up a SEP for your self-employed business even if you participate in your employer's retirement plan at a second job."

That suggests that you can contribute to a SEP even if you yourself are participating in a 401K, let alone if your spouse is merely offered one.

You are correct, I was misinformed.

It seems only people who are employed by employers that don't offer 401k get screwed if the spouse does have a 401k and you're over certain incomes:
