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.
In addition, married workers can also contribute to a spousal IRA on behalf of their spouse if that spouse did not have any earned income that year. Regardless, income from interest, dividends, and capital gains alone does not permit a person to contribute to an IRA. How Much You Can You Contribute to an IRA? Provided your compensation is at least as much as the amount of your contributions, taxpayers under 50 years old may currently contribute up to $5,500 per year to their IRA(s). Those at least 50 years old by the end of the tax year may contribute an additional $1,000 in catch-up savings annually for a total of $6,500.
