Higher 401(k) Contribution Limits for 2022

Good news for retirement savers—401(k) contribution limits have increased for 2022. You can now contribute up to $20,500, which is a $1,000 increase from the previous limit.

Additional Savings for Workers Over 50

If you’re age 50 or older, you can make an additional catch-up contribution of $6,500, allowing you to save even more toward retirement.

Tax Benefits and Long-Term Impact

401(k) contributions are made on a pre-tax basis, meaning the money you contribute is not taxed in the year it’s earned—helping to reduce your taxable income. Saving more now not only lowers your current tax bill but also sets you up for a stronger financial future in retirement.
