A 403 (b) retirement plan is the type of retirement plan offered by schools, nonprofits and other tax-exempt organizations. These plans function similarly to 401 (k) plans and allow employees to ...
For 2022, the combined employee and employer contribution limit for a 403 (b) is $61,000 for workers under age 50, an increase of $3,000 from the previous year. The limit for those 50 and older is ...
Annual contribution limits for the 401(k) and the 403(b) are also the same — $20,500 in 2022 and $22,500 in 2023, plus catch-up contributions for employees age 50 or older.
For employees over 50, the catch-up contribution limit is also added to the section 415 limit. Governmental employers in the United States (that is, federal, state, county, and city governments) are currently barred from offering 401(k) retirement plans unless the retirement plan was established before May 1986.
This allows a person whose employer has a 401(k) or 403(b) and a 457 to defer the maximum contribution amounts to both plans instead of coordinating the total and only being able to meet a single limit amount. Thus, participants can contribute the maximum $19,500 for 2021 into their 401(k) and also the maximum $19,500 into their 457 plan.
These limits are different from the limits that apply to 401(k), 403(b), and 457 plans. The SIMPLE plan can technically be funded with either an IRA or a 401(k). There is almost no benefit to funding it with a 401(k), because the lower contribution limits of the SIMPLE are required as is the expensive extra administration of the 401(k).
Catch-up contributions: Like its traditional counterpart, a Roth 403(b) allows catch-up contributions for those age 50 and older, as well as a 15-year catch-up contribution if the employer allows it.
The 401(k) contribution limit for 2024 is $23,000, and the catch-up contribution allows workers to add an additional $7,500 – for a grand total of $30,500 this year.
