IRA: The annual contribution limit for 2020 is $6,000, or $7,000 if you’re age 50 or older (same as 2019 limit). Your Roth IRA contributions may also be limited based on your filing status and income. Roth IRA contribution limits are reduced or eliminated at higher incomes. Traditional IRA contributions are deductible, but the amount you can deduct may be reduced or eliminated if you or your spouse is covered by a retirement plan at work. Lower-income taxpayers may be eligible for the “saver’s credit” if they contribute to an IRA. For the 2020 tax year, you have from Jan. 1, 2020, to April 15, 2021, to contribute to an IRA.
