❓ ਅਕਸਰ ਪੁੱਛੇ ਸਵਾਲ

What's the difference between Traditional IRA and Roth IRA contribution limits?

2026 contribution limit: $7,000 (under 50) or $8,500 (50+). Same limit for both Traditional and Roth. Difference: Traditional = tax-deductible now, taxed on withdrawal. Roth = not deductible now, tax-free on withdrawal. Choose based on current vs. expected retirement tax bracket. High earners may prefer Roth if they expect higher taxes in retirement.

What are income phaseouts and when do they apply?

Roth IRA phaseout: $146k-$156k single (2026), $230k-$240k married. Above phaseout = cannot contribute to Roth directly. Traditional IRA deduction phaseout: if covered by employer plan, $77k-$87k single (2026). Above = traditional IRA not deductible (but can still contribute). Backdoor Roth strategy: contribute to Traditional IRA (non-deductible), immediately convert to Roth. Bypasses income limits.

What's a catch-up contribution and who qualifies?

Age 50+, catch-up contribution limit: additional $1,500 for IRA (total $8,500), additional $7,500 for 401k (total $30,500). Allows older workers to accelerate retirement savings if behind. Solo 401k catch-ups: higher limits. Check IRS annually for updated amounts (adjusted for inflation).

What's the difference between SEP IRA, Solo 401k, and SIMPLE IRA for self-employed?

SEP IRA: 20% of net self-employment income, max $69k (2026). Simple: 3% match or 2% non-elective, up to $16.5k employee ($20k with catch-up), $3,9k employer match/non-elective. Solo 401k: employee (up to $23.5k) + employer (20% income) = up to $69k total. Solo 401k is most flexible but complex. Choose based on income level and simplicity preference.

What's a backdoor Roth and is it still viable in 2026?

Backdoor Roth: contribute to Traditional IRA (non-deductible), immediately convert to Roth, bypassing income limits. Pro-rata rule: if you have other Traditional IRAs with pre-tax dollars, conversion taxes pro-rata. E.g., 90% pre-tax IRAs = 90% of conversion is taxable. Strategy viability depends on pro-rata exposure. Clean Roth conversions require zero pre-tax IRA balance.
