Retirement tax questions

Eligibility and the amounts you can contribute to a Solo 401(k) and a traditional IRA are calculated/determined separately.  If you have earned income of at least $7,000 you can contribute that amount to a Traditional IRA ($6,000 annual limit for 2022 + $1,000 catch-up if over 50).   If you are self-employed sole proprietor, and your business did not have any earned income, neither you nor the business can contribute to your solo 401(k).
