Catch-up contributions for both Traditional and Roth IRAs are allowed after age 50. Typically, the catch-up amount is $1,000 above the normal contribution amount.
If you did not maximize your contributions in the prior year, the IRS allows you to make a contribution in the current year and apply it to the prior year, provided you make the contribution by the tax deadline, normally April 15.
Deducting your contributions from your taxes is based on income and participation in an employer-sponsored retirement plan.
The Traditional IRA contribution rules are categorized into two phases based on age:
Age

2023 $7,500 |

Before rolling over a 401(k) to an IRA, be sure to consider your other choices, including keeping it in the former employer’s plan, rolling it into a 401(k) at a new employer, or cashing out the account value. Keeping in mind that taking a lump sum distribution can have adverse tax consequences. Be sure to consult with your tax advisor.
