The calendar page has turned and 2024 is here. Before we get too far down the road, be sure to check out these changes around retirement savings.
Every so often the federal government approves changes to the contribution limits for tax-advantaged retirement plans. Staying up to date on these changes is important so you know how you and your future could be impacted. We’ve outlined some of them below but, as always, be sure to check with your financial advisor for a more comprehensive review.
You may choose to automate your contributions to your retirement fund and then just forget about them. That’s okay! But take a moment to review these changes with a financial advisor to see if they could affect your savings goals. You may decide to make some adjustments.
It’s very important to know the limits and timing around withdrawals from your retirement accounts. This year, some of the limits for IRA withdrawals were updated. Here’s what to consider:
Required minimum distributions from tax-advantaged retirement plans now begin at age 73 instead of age 72. Delaying your distributions could affect your tax situation, so be sure to check with a qualified tax advisor or wealth advisor before deciding when to begin withdrawing from a tax-advantaged retirement plan.
