Income Limits for TIRA and Roth IRA

1. Is the income limit for making a deductible TIRA and a Roth IRA contribution AGI or MAGI?

2. How is MAGI different from AGI?



It is MAGI, and to make things more confusing, MAGI is defined differently in various tax code provisions including a difference between MAGI for a Roth IRA as opposed to a traditional IRA.

The main difference from AGI is that certain deductions and exclusions are not included in MAGI.
