Why A — The contributor must have earned income and fall below certain modified adjusted gross income (MAGI) limits
To contribute to a Roth IRA, an individual must have earned income (such as wages, salaries, or self-employment income) and their modified adjusted gross income must be below certain thresholds set by the IRS. Unlike Traditional IRAs, there is no age limit for making Roth IRA contributions as long as the individual has earned income.
