We'll help you get started or pick up where you left off.

If I deposit money to a IRA tomorrow can I still deduct it from my tax return this year?

Yes if deposited before midnight 4/15.

BUT ask your IRA custodian if THEY will still accept and post 2018 contributions.  Many financial institutions have rules that they take 2-4 days to post a contribution and will not accept a 2018 contribution at this late date.
