2020 IRA Contribution Deadline

I know the Federal Tax Deadline was extended to April 17th. What about the IRA contribution deadline for 2020. Was it extended as well?

      If you are using a CD/downloaded version of TurboTax, be sure that you have updated to the most recent version.  

       

      See the following TurboTax article for instructions:  How do I update my TurboTax CD/Download software program?
