I maxed out my retirement plans at 24K can my non-working spouse contribute to a Roth or Traditional IRA?

[KatrinaB · Accepted solution]

Yes. If you filed a joint tax return, you may be able to contribute to an IRA even for a non-working spouse. However, the amount of your combined contributions cannot be more than the taxable compensation reported on your tax return. See the formula in IRS Publication 590-A.
