Yes, you can continue to contribute to your Roth IRA after you retire, as long as you have earned income from work. However, your contributions must also fall within the income limits set by the IRS. It's important to note that while you can contribute after retirement, the ability to withdraw your earnings tax-free depends on meeting certain conditions, such as being at least 59½ years old and having the account for at least five years.
