New 401(k) Limits for 2022
Submitted by ClearBridge Wealth Management on January 9th, 2022January 9, 2022
The NEW Employee Retirement Contribution amounts for 2022 are below. You will need to contact your Human Resources Department or your Payroll Company and have them adjust your Retirement Contributions for 2022 per below. They will NOT be adjusted automatically.
I recognize that this does not apply to everyone (Congratulations, probably means you are retired) but this was the best/fastest way to communicate the new amounts to those that are impacted.
If you have a 401(k) Plan:
2022 Employee Contribution Limit (Under age 50) is $20,500
2022 Employee Contribution Limit (Over age 50) is $27,000*
If you have a SIMPLE Plan:
2022 Employee Contribution Limit (Under age 50) is $14,000
2022 Employee Contribution Limit (Over age 50) is $17,000*
If you Have a Traditional IRA or ROTH IRA:
2022 Contribution Limit (Under age 50) is $6,000
2022 Contribution Limit (Over age 50) is $7,000*
*If you are turning 50 during 2022 or are already over the age of 50 the “Over age 50” amount applies to you.
