Yes, but combined contribution limits apply. For 2008 the maximum contribution amount is $5,000 for individuals under 50 years of age and $6,000 for those over 50. If you are under 50 and contribute $2,000 to your Roth IRA then you can only contribute $3,000 to your Traditional IRA.
For a traditional IRA, you no longer can contribute after the age of 70 1/2 (RMD checks in). For Roth, you can contribute forever since no RMD are taken from this type of IRA account.
Yes, you can contribute post-tax money to a Roth IRA, but not to a traditional IRA.
A backdoor Roth IRA can be beneficial for high-income earners who are not eligible to contribute to a traditional Roth IRA due to income limits. By utilizing a backdoor Roth IRA, they can make nondeductible contributions to a traditional IRA and then convert it to a Roth IRA, allowing for tax-free growth and withdrawals in the future.
Yes, a 75-year-old can contribute to a Roth IRA as long as they have earned income. There is no age limit for contributing to a Roth IRA, unlike a Traditional IRA which has an age limit for contributions.
No max for Roth...can contribute money into IRA forever. Non-roth have an age limit of 70 1/2
Yes, you can contribute to both a Traditional and a Roth IRA account but contribution limits apply across both accounts. For example, if your contribution limit is $5,000 then you could contribute $2,500 in each account. You can not contribute $5,000 into each account.
IRA is Roth
Fortunately, you can easily convert your traditional IRA to a Roth IRA during a given tax year. You can contact the company that operates your IRA and have them rollover the traditional IRA to the new Roth IRA.
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.
Yes, a 71-year-old can contribute to a traditional IRA as long as they have earned income. They are also eligible to contribute to a Roth IRA regardless of age if they meet income requirements.
Traditional and Roth IRA contributions can only be made with earned compensation, (ie: W2 income, bonuses, commissions, etc). A Spousal IRA contribution may also be an option.
Is your question can you have both a ROTH and Traditional IRA? If so, yes you can.
Not directly but you can roll it over to a Traditional IRA first then convert that IRA to a Roth.
