Contribution Limits - 2025

Retirement Plans

In 2025, you can make personal contributions to your retirement savings up to the limits as noted in the following table. See bottom of this page for the 2024 contribution limits.

Your Age Total Before-tax and Roth Contribution Limit
Under age 50 $23,500
Age 50-59 by December 31, 2025 $31,000
(includes $7,500 "catch-up" contribution)
Age 60-63 by December 31, 2025 $34,750
(includes $11,250 "super catch-up" contribution)
Age 64 or older by December 31, 2025 $31,000
(includes $7,500 "catch-up" contribution)

NOTE: If you have at least 15 years of service within your denomination, you may be able to contribute a higher amount than the above limits—call Wespath for further information. The Internal Revenue Service requires that, if you are eligible for both the catch-up based on age and the 15 years of service limit, you use the 15 years limit first, before the age-based catch-up limit.

Total personal and plan sponsor contributions (not including “catch-up” or “super catch-up” contributions) to all 403(b) plans sponsored by your plan sponsor cannot exceed the lesser of 100% of compensation or $70,000 for 2025.

NOTE: the clergy housing allowance is excluded from “compensation” for this purpose.
