401 k

yijian — Tue, 24 Feb 2026 08:02:50 GMT

$14,000 is my 401K contribution showing on my w-2 (pre-tax). My trustee company have made a rollover ($14000) to my IRA account opened at their company. $2500 (my retirement plan ) is my second pre-employer made a rollover to my another IRA account opened by another trustee. I don't contribute any money to my IRA account in 2023. $14,000 and $2500 (all of these) are made a rollover by my two pre-employers. If that is the case, how much money I can contribute for the tax year 2023?

Thank you for your reply and your time!

Hello and thank you for joining us today!

You can roll money from a traditional 401(k) into a rollover Roth IRA, but then you'd owe income tax on the money you rolled over. One main difference between a traditional or Roth IRA and a rollover IRA is that you can roll over as much money as you want into the rollover IRA.

Does my rollover count as a contribution?

No. It is considered separately from your annual contribution limit. So you can contribute additional money to your rollover IRA in the year you open it, up to your allowable contribution limit.
