Who is eligible to contribute to a qualified annuity?

  1. Only full-time employees of public companies

  2. Public school employees and certain non-profit organization employees

  3. Any individual over the age of 18

  4. Only employees of the federal government

The correct answer is: Public school employees and certain non-profit organization employees

In the context of qualified annuities, eligibility to contribute primarily includes employees of public educational institutions and certain non-profit organizations. This aligns with the provisions of Section 403(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, which specifically caters to public school systems and non-profit entities. These plans allow for tax-deferred contributions, making them appealing to eligible participants. The other options reflect narrower or incorrect scopes of eligibility. For example, while some individuals aged over 18 can contribute to personal retirement accounts, this doesn't specifically address the qualified annuity criteria. Similarly, limiting contributions solely to full-time employees of public companies or federal employees excludes a significant portion of those who can make contributions, particularly in the educational and non-profit sectors.
