SECURE Act repeal of maximum age 70½
The SECURE Act repealed the maximum age of 70½ for
traditional IRA contributions. California law does not conform
to this federal provision. If you report an IRA deduction on
Schedule CA (540), Part I, or Schedule CA (540NR), Part II,
Section C, line 20, column A at age 70½ or older, include that
amount deducted for federal in the total you enter on Section C,
line 20, column B
