Fixed Contributions for retirement accounts HSA, Roth IRA, Traditional IRA - Redux
The Fixed Contribution feature seems to ignore earned income rules for Roth IRA, and I suspect Traditional IRA.
I’m not certain if it ignores the HSA income rule (which is that there needs to be some income of ANY kind)
I would expect the earned income rule should apply to all Roth and Traditional IRA contributions, regardless of “income limit” rules selected (Backdoor Roth, US Limit, Custom, none, ).
I suppose if you needed to add the option to ignore “earned income” rules you could add that as a separate flag, but I cannot conceive of any scenario where this would be desirable. As far as I can tell, it would only lead people to make mistakes.
