During a divorce, I received part of my ex-spouse's Roth IRA. It was passed from trustee to trustee (no cash was ever in my hands) directly into my own Roth IRA. It was greater than the 5,500 allowed each year for a contribution. But if this was a rollover, conversion or a recharacterization then I don't think it's a contribution so I won't worry about exceeding the 5,500 limit.
