Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Hello 69TransAm,

 

Unfortunately, you cannot contribute to ROTH IRA if you do not have any earned income. SS, pension and unemployment do not count as earned income. If you are married and your spouse has income, you can use that income to contribute to ROTH if qualify. 

 

Thanks for participating in TurboTax's Ask the Expert event today. I hope this information was helpful!
