Roth Contribution after 70 1/2?

I know this is an easy one, but can you contribute to a Roth after age 70 1/2?



Yes, as long as you have earned income.

And even if you do not have earned income, you can still convert from your traditional IRA to a Roth IRA if your income is under 100,000. If you are 70.5, you must take your RMD first prior to converting an additional amount. You cannot convert the RMD amount.
