Roth IRA Contribution Making under $6k

[brettf413]

I am a student and worked part time last year, making $2500 doing food delivery. I deducted about $600 for mileage expenses. Am I stillallowed to contribute the whole$2500 to a Roth IRA?

No.  Only the net amount after expenses and subtracting the deductible part of the SE tax.

Thank you! I’ve looked around everywhere and could not find an answer to this question.
