You can contribute to a Roth IRA after age 70.5 as long as you have earned income, but you cannot contribute to a traditional IRA after that age. For a 401(k) plan, it depends on the rules of the specific plan, but typically you can continue to contribute to it past age 70.5 as long as you are still working and the plan allows for it.
