My wife is a homemaker. I was contributing to her traditional IRA all these years. Normally I contribute between Jan and April of the next year. This has worked all these years. But, this year I am getting "spouse's traditional IRA 2023 made in 2024 should not be more than zero" I do not know how to move forward. This is so frustrating.
Please help

Please make sure you enter the traditional IRA contribution amount in the "Your total 2023 traditional IRA contributions" field and in the "Tell us how much of the above total contribution for 2023 you contributed between January 1, 2024 and April 15, 2024". You need to enter it in both fields when you made a contribution in 2024 for 2023.
