The limit for a Traditional 401k is $15,500/year, and the limit for a ROTH 401k is $4000/year. However, this year I put $3000 in my Traditional, and $1500 in my ROTH 401K, and Turbotax says I am over my legal limit. There seems to be a conflict in the tax code, so I must be misunderstanding something. Even my payroller and retirement account company are confused.
