Course Description

The primary means of funding an IRA is by making regular contributions. And, while making a contribution seems like a simple enough process mistakes are often made that result in excess contributions, making contributions to the wrong type of IRA (traditional instead of Roth and vice versa) and failing to timely correct ineligible contributions.

In this program, national IRA expert Denise Appleby will take you through the rules for making contributions to Traditional IRAs and Roth IRAs; including when and how to claim deductions for traditional IRA contributions, how to switch from a traditional IRA contribution to a Roth IRA contribution, how to correct an excess IRA/Roth IRA contribution and avoid the 6% annual excise tax, and the tax reporting requirements for IRA contributions.

Part 1: IRA Contributions: Eligibility, Deductibility, and Backdoor Roth IRA Contributions
Part 2: Recharacterizations, Excess Contribution Corrections, and Tax Reporting of IRA Contributions

Learning Objectives

Upon completing this course, participants will be able to:

  • Determine clients’ eligibility to make contributions to traditional IRAs and Roth IRAs;
