Some Changes to the Roth IRA
The income requirements for contributing to a Roth IRA are based on tax filing status and income and have been adjusted upwards for 2025.
- For singles, heads of household, or married filing separately, the new phase-out range is under $150,000 to $163,500, compared to the previous range of $146,000 to $161,000.
- For married couples filing jointly or a qualified widow(er), the updated range is under $236,000 to $245,000, an increase from $230,000 to $240,000.
- For married individuals filing separately, the phase-out range remains unchanged at $0 to $9,000.
Roth IRA Contribution Limits for 2025
Contribution limits have stayed the same for 2025. It is now $7,000 for those under 50 years old or $8,000 for those who are 50+ years old. Of course, this amount still depends on your modified adjusted gross income (MAGI) and tax filing status. For instance, a single or head of household contributor who makes less than $150,000 can contribute the full amount ($7,000/$8,000). In contrast, anyone making between that amount and $163,500 would be allowed to make a reduced contribution, and anyone over the full $163,500 cannot contribute.
