Did you make a new IRA contribution and enter in into the IRA contribution section?
Do you have at least $7,000 of earned compensation (money that you worked for) to make a contribution.
Is your MAGI too high to allow a Roth contribution.
The most you can contribute to all of your traditional and Roth IRAs is the smaller of:
For 2018, $5,500, or $6,500 if you’re age 50 or older by the end of the year; or
your taxable compensation for the year.
For 2019, $6,000, or $7,000 if you’re age 50 or older by the end of the year; or
your taxable compensation for the year.
(Taxable compensation is generally wages that you worked for - W-2 or net self-employed income minus the deducible part of the SE tax, but can include commissions, alimony and separate maintenance, and nontaxable combat pay ).
