  • Beginning in 2020 you can make contributions at any age
  • You must track contributions on form 1040 and 8606
  • Combined IRA contributions (Tax-Deductible, Non-Deductible, and/or Roth cannot exceed the annual IRS limit; 2020 $6,000 ($7,000 if age 50 or older)

Roth IRA

Allows you to make contributions on a post-tax basis, up to a specified amount each year (determined by the IRS). Because you've already paid income taxes on the money you contribute, withdrawals of account earnings and contributions after age 59 1/2 are generally tax-free (other restrictions and exceptions may apply).

Eligibility
  • You must have earned income less than $124,000 (single tax filing status) $196,000 if married filing jointly (2020 tax year both adjusted annually)
  • Beginning in 2020 you can make contributions at any age
  • You must track contributions on form 1040 and 8606
  • Combined IRA contributions (Tax-Deductible, Non-Deductible, and/or Roth cannot exceed the annual IRS limit; 2020 $6,000 ($7,000 if age 50 or older)
