Contribution limits for 401(k)s, 403(b)s, 457(b)s, IRAs, HSAs, FSAs are out.
All the limits are indexed to inflation so you will generally see an increased contribution every year or two. Inflation was relatively high in the first half of 2021, so the 2022 contribution limits for many of these accounts increased for 2022.
