2022 Contribution Limits Including "Catch-Up" Contributions

With the new year comes new contribution limits. For retirement plans and HSA accounts, these limits have increased for 2022. Also, a number that will become vitally important to you is the “catch-up” contribution.

In the year you turn 50, you can increase your contribution amount into Retirement Plans and IRAs. This additional allowed amount is called a “catch-up” contribution. This increase in contribution limits can play a key role in saving for retirement. Each year the IRS reviews these limits and potentially adjusts them based on inflation for each year. Please see below the chart identifying Retirement Plan and IRA amounts for 2022.
