Savers and investors aged 50 or older can take advantage of a catch-up contribution, effectively increasing the limit for those approaching traditional retirement age. In 2015, taxpayers who meet this age-based criterion can contribute an additional $6,000 above the regular maximum of $18,000.y the end of the year, I expect to have maximized the employee portion of my 401(k) contributions at $16,500 with extra invested for the employer portion. My 2010 contributions fell short from the maximum by about $700, and a portion of that is due to leaving the company in the middle of December.
Each year the IRS publishes updated Maximum 401K contribution limits, as well as catch-up contribution limits for the new year. Typically, the limits the IRS sets each year is based on inflation factors (with minimum $500 increases), so they do not necessarily increase the limit each year.he 401K Contribution Limit for 2015 has now been set, with an increases of $500 over 2014, to $18,000. The Maximum 401K contribution Limit for 2013 and 2014 was $17,500.
