If you did contribute $900 to the Traditional IRA and can take a deduction for it, then yes, you would have $100 of income left, and in the ridiculous world where you are not allowed any deductions or exemptions, then yes, you would have $10 of tax, and get $90 of refund because that's how much tax you overpaid due to over-withholding.

Step 2. Subtract any contributions made to a Roth IRA. Roth IRAs and traditional IRAs share a combined contribution limit, so every dollar you put in a Roth IRA decreases the amount you can contribute to a traditional IRA. If you didn't contribute to a Roth IRA, your contribution limit doesn't decrease. Contribute to a traditional IRA, up to your annual contribution limit. If you don't already have one, you can open a traditional IRA at most financial institutions by completing an application and making a first deposit.

(Also, at that low a tax rate, nobody would contribute to a Traditional IRA; a Roth IRA would be much better.) So the answer is, you can put $1000 into your Traditional IRA. If you somehow had it over-withheld so that you only got $900 from your paycheck, then you would get $100 from somewhere else to contribute.

Yes, it's not going to be taxed again. If you wanted to contribute that $90 to Traditional IRA for the year you already did tax returns on, then, well, you should have written a $990 contribution on your tax returns to start with, so that you would get a $99 refund.

The Pre-Tax Advantage. The primary benefit of a traditional IRA is that in most cases, the contributions are made on a pre-tax basis. This means that when you deposit money into the IRA, you can deduct that amount from your taxable income. This results in paying less income tax for the year. For 2007, the maximum contribution to a traditional IRA is $4,000, and $5,000 if you are age 50 or older.
