If filing married and both work for couple under 55, is the maximum contribution for 401k for 2022 only 20500 for both or 41000 (20500 + 20500) ?

401K is for an individual. So 20,500 max each person = 41,000. You can each contribute the max.
Hello,
It is correct that the contribution limit is $ 20500 per individual in 2022.
However, if you are also above 50, you are also eligible to contribute an additional $6500 each in catch-up contributions.
