Are You Over Age 50?
Consider making a catch-up contribution to your retirement!
If you contribute $7,500 each year from age 50 to age 67 (17 years), you can make a big impact on your future.
*This example is intended for illustrative purposes only.
When am I eligible to make a catch-up contribution?
If you turn age 50 anytime in the calendar year, you are eligible to contribute an additional $7,500 into your plan as a catch-up contribution. This is in addition to the $22,500 annual limit.
Is the catch-up contribution pre-tax or Roth?
Currently, either type of savings are available for your catch-up contribution. Depending on your income, the Secure Act 2.0 may require a change for your situation to Roth. This change will not go into effect until 2025 however, so there is plenty of time to make catch-up contributions to your situation, regardless of whether it is pre-tax or Roth.
What does this all mean?
If you wish to save an additional $7,500 per year, you could accumulate over $250,000 in the next 17 years, depending on the rate of return! As the limits to saving increase, you may be able to save even more each year.
