2017 PENSION PLAN CONTRIBUTION LIMITS

The IRS has announced the 2017 limits for contributions to tax-deferred pension plans.  The basic numbers remain unchanged – they are the same as 2016.
 
·      IRA = $5,500
·      IRA Catch-Up Contributions at age 50 and older = $1,000
·      SIMPLE Plan = $12,500
·      SIMPLE Catch-Up Contributions at age 50 and older = $3,000
·      401(k), 403(b), 457, and federal Thrift Savings Plan = $18,000
·      401(k), 403(b), 457, and federal Thrift Savings Plan Catch-Up Contributions at age 50 and older = $6,000
 
The 2017 Adjusted Gross Income phase-out ranges for deductible traditional IRA and ROTH IRA contributions have also been announced.  There are minor increases to these ranges.  These ranges will be included in the compilation of “What’s New for 2017” that I am currently putting together.  I’ll let you know when it is available to download.
