On Friday August 25, the Internal Revenue Service announced an administrative delay period that effectively extends the deadline for adding Roth catch-up contributions under the SECURE 2.0 Act until at least January 1, 2026.
Specifically, the announcement provides that, until 2026, catch-up contributions will satisfy the requirements under SECURE 2.0, even if the contributions made for those making more than $145,000 from their employer in the prior year are not designated as Roth contributions as required by SECURE 2.0.
