IRS 2023 Roth IRA contribution limits: how much will they increase for single filers and heads of households?
Investment contribution limits for all plans have been raised due to inflationary pressure meaning you can put more savings away for the future.
Changes are coming in 2023 for your future retirement investments. The annual contribution limits always change with inflation but due to the highest inflation in nealy 40 years the limits are jumping by a sizeable amount for both 401(k) and Roth IRAs.
For those saving in a traditional or Roth IRA the 2023 limit on contributions rises to $6,500 next year, a $500 increase. If you are contributing to either plan and you are over 50 years old then this rises by an extra $1,000 to $7,500 in 2023. However, if your taxable income is lower than this then that is your limit.
Changes to IRA tax deduction income limits
Contributions to an IRA may be tax deductible if your modified adjusted gross income (MAGI) is under a certain limit. For single, head of household or qualifying widow(er) this limit is $73,000 then any contributions are tax deductible. Between $73,000 and $83,000 there is a partial deductible and deductions over $83,000 there is no deduction.
