Prior Year IRA Contributions – Tax Return Extension

I understand contributions for the prior year can be done up to a tax return extension for SEP IRA’s, but can traditional IRA contributions be made up to the October extension date?



No, they must be made by the April due date. In some federal disaster impacted areas the due date has been extended to 10/16 and regular IRA contributions for the prior year can be made by 10/16 in those limited areas.
