Roth Employer Contributions
Roth elective deferral contributions have been permitted in qualified retirement plans since 2006. Section 604 of SECURE 2.0 provided for an optional provision that allows employees to designate their employer contributions, whether it be matching nonelective, as Roth. This applies to 401(k) Plans and 403(b) Plan. This was effective December 29, 2022; however, several challenges delayed implementation of this provision.
