Deductions & credits

For 2020, she can contribute (assuming that you have sufficient compensations to do so) but it would not be deductible since your MAGI would be over the $124,000 cut off amount when covered by a retirement plan.

Assuming that for 2021 she will not be covered *  then if the contribution is for 2021 there is no limit unless yiu are covered then the MAGI for her would be $198K.

 

*Some retirement plans do not work on a calendar year so there is a chance that the plan could extend into 2021 and if covered in 2021, even if for a day, the cut off limit would apply to 2021 also.
