Filing Status/Roth IRA
« on: April 17, 2007, 07:30:32 PM »
I just read somewhere that if you file your taxes as married filing single that you are ineligible to contribute to a Roth IRA. Does anyone know if this is true?

Thanks Liz. I'm assuming it's ok to contribute to a standard IRA?

But the exciting part is that the UK may give relief for the traditional IRA contributions; check with a tax adviser if you are unclear how as there are a few hurdles to jump to get UK relief.
