Age restrictions on IRA contributions+

[Aggie61]

Your turbo tax program is telling me I cannot make a contribution to my IRA because I am older than 70 1/2.  The IRS documents clearly state that there is NO age limit for IRA contributions for tax year 2020.  What's up???

Ignore an help text that still indicates that those over age 70½ cannot contribute to an IRA.  Enter the contribution anyway and TurboTax will not treat it as an age-based excess contribution.

Also make sure that you have installed the latest TurboTax update.
