2019 Supplemental Retirement Limit Increase
If you are currently maxing out contributions to a 401k or 457b, you will need to complete new paperwork for the January payroll to increase your contribution to the new maximum.
For 2019 the maximum contribution to either of these accounts will be 19,000 (currently it is 18,500). For employees age 50 or older, you may contribute an additional 6,000 (no change from 2018). Since deductions are made over 24 pay periods, to max out for 2019 at an even contribution level, that amount is 791.67 (under 50); or 1,041.67 (50 and over).
If you contribute to TIAA or Fidelity on a supplemental basis and would like to increase your contribution for 2019, complete the form here. If you participate with Prudential, you should contact them directly to modify your amount for 2019, either through your online account access or by phone at 866-627-5267.
