The Internal Revenue Services (IRS) has released new limits for certain retirement accounts for the coming year.
Traditional IRA contribution limits will remain at $7,000 for 2025. Catch-up contributions for those over age 50 also remain at $1,000, bringing the total limit to $8,000.
Note: Once you reach age 73, you must begin taking required minimum distributions from a Traditional IRA in most circumstances. Withdrawals are taxed as ordinary income and, if taken before age 59½, may be subject to a 10% federal income tax penalty.
Roth IRAs
The income phase-out range for Roth IRA contributions increases to $150,000-$165,000 for single filers and heads of household, a $4,000 increase. For married couples filing jointly, phase-out will be $236,000-$246,000, a $6,000 increase. Married individuals filing separately see their phase-out range remain at $0-10,000.
Note: To qualify for the tax-free and penalty-free withdrawal of earnings, Roth 401(k) distributions must meet a five-year holding requirement and occur after age 59½. Tax-free and penalty-free withdrawals can also be taken under certain other circumstances, such as the owner’s death.
Workplace retirement accounts
Those with 401(k), 403(b), 457 plans, and similar accounts will see a $500 increase for 2025, the limit rising to $23,500. Those aged 50 and older will continue to have the ability to contribute an extra $7,500, bringing their total limit to $31,000.
Note: Once you reach age 73 you must begin taking required minimum distributions from your 401(k) or other defined-contribution plans in most circumstances. Withdrawals are taxed as ordinary income and, if taken before age 59½, may be subject to a 10% federal income tax penalty.
SIMPLE accounts
A $500 increase in limits for 2025 gives individuals contributing to this incentive match plan a $16,500 stoplight.
Note: Much like a traditional IRA, once you reach age 73, you must begin taking required minimum distributions from a SIMPLE account in most circumstances. Withdrawals are taxed as ordinary income and, if taken before age 59½, may be subject to a 10% federal income tax penalty.
