Your plan administrator should be able to tell you the percentage that your 401K plan will allow you to contribute as your part of the deferred compensation amount.
The amount that an employee may elect to defer to a 401(k) plan is limited by the Internal Revenue Code. In addition, your elective contributions may be limited based on the terms of your 401(k) plan. go to the IRS gov web site and use the search box for Publication 525, Taxable and Nontaxable Income, for more information about elective contributions.
