What else can I help you with?
Can you contribute to a Simple IRA and A SEP?
Yes, you can contribute to both a Simple IRA and a SEP IRA in the same tax year, but there are specific contribution limits and eligibility requirements for each account. However, the total contributions to both plans combined cannot exceed the annual contribution limits set by the IRS. It's important to keep track of your contributions to ensure compliance with these limits. Always consider consulting a tax professional for personalized advice.
How can I avoid having an overfunded IRA?

Where can I find a short term roth ira account where I can add additional funds into the account when needed?
Short-term CDs do not allow for money to be added to them "when needed." You deposit a specific amount of money for a specific time. It is not a revolving account or an open deposit savings instrument. A ROTO IRA is an investment retirement account into which taxed dollars are deposited, as opposed to a traditional IRA in which funds are taxed upon withdrawal. The IRS limits the annual contribution to both.
Can you change a CD to a regular IRA?
If the CD is already in an IRA account, you can transfer it to any other IRA account that will accept your CD. However, unless you have a brokered CD, it ordinarily can't be transfered to another bank or to a brokerage. If you have an ordinary CD that you bought at a bank, it has to stay in the same bank. If the CD is not in an IRA account, you cannot put it into an IRA account. Only cash (including checks, money orders, and electronic funds transfers) can be contributed to an IRA. If you are eligible to put money into an IRA, you will have to wait until the CD matures and cash it out or cash it out early and pay a penalty. Then you can use the cash to make a contribution to an IRA subject to the usual annual limits on contributions.
Can you put capital gains in an IRA?
No, you cannot put capital gains directly into an IRA. Capital gains are typically generated from the sale of investments or assets, and the proceeds can be used to contribute to an IRA within the annual contribution limits.

Can you take your IRA account and transfer that IRA account into another individuals IRA account?
No, you can not transfer an IRA account from one person to another. IRA accounts are only for one particular individual. You would have to take a distribution from your IRA account and deal with any tax consequences, then give that money to the other individual so that they could contribute it to their IRA account. They would have to abide by the limitations placed on contribution limits i.e. $5,000 per year (as of 2009) for individuals under the age of 50 and $6,000 (called a catch up contribution) for those over the age of 50.
Is it possible for me to open more than one IRA account?
Yes, it is possible for you to open and contribute to more than one IRA account, but the total annual contribution limit applies to all your IRAs combined.
Is the contribution limit for an IRA or Roth account 5000 for the year per customer OR per customer account?
The $5,000 annual IRA contribution limit is per customer. You maximum contribution amount is determined by adding contributions to all of your IRA accounts (both traditional and Roth).
Where is Roth IRA Contribution Limited located?
There is no company or entity entitled Roth IRA Contribution Limited. Roth individual retirement account contribution limits refer to the maximum contribution a person can make to such an account in a given year. Those limits are set annually and published by the Internal Revenue Service as Publication 590.
