can i still contribute to my traditional IRA for 2025, i filed as i was doing it and failed to do so on time?

@carolinatbr16 unless you filed an extension, no.

I don't think extensions apply for contributions per 590a

Contributions must be made by due date. Contributions can be made to your traditional IRA for a year at any time during the year or by the due date for filing your return for that year, not including extensions. For most people, this means that contributions for 2025 must be made by April 15, 2026.

@carolinatbr16 your broker won't allow you to designate a contribution for 2025 at this point.  you'll need to amend your return to remove the contribution.

As baldie tax said, it's too late to contributed to your traditional IRA for 2025.  If you filed your 2025 tax return claiming a deduction for an IRA contribution or included Form 8606 showing a nondeductible contribution for 2025, you'll need to amend to correct that.
