2022 & 2023 Employer Contribution Limits:
The employer is generally required to match each employee’s salary reduction contributions on a dollar-for-dollar basis up to 3% of the employee’s compensation. This requirement does not apply if the employer makes non-elective contributions instead.
Instead of matching contributions, an employer can choose to make non-elective contributions of 2% of each eligible employee’s compensation up to the annual limit of $305,000 for 2022; $330,000 for 2023. If the employer makes this choice, it must make non-elective contributions whether or not the employee chooses to make salary reduction contributions.
Withdrawals:
Withdraw at any time but a 10% penalty may apply if you are under age 59 ½. If the withdrawal is taken within the first two years of participation in the plan that penalty increases to 25%.
