The contribution limits apply to each individual, so married couples may be able to contribute the contribution limit for both spouses. For example, in 2017, a married couple, both of whom are over age 50, may contribute a total of $13,000 ($6,500 each, if there is enough earned income to support this level of contribution). Note: You may continue to fund your IRA for 2016 through April 18, 2017.
But, the Internal Revenue Service sets limits on how much you can contribute each year to an IRA. There are different limits for single taxpayers and married couples because the government recognizes a couple will likely need twice as much money to retire on than one person. Contribution Limits The maximum anyone under the age of 50 can contribute to an IRA is $5,000 per year. The maximum limit for couples is $10,000, and it doesn't matter if that comes from one person or both. IRS rules allow married couples to each make the maximum contribution even if one of the spouses didn't work that year or earn any income.
