401K and IRA

I am 60 years old single. I have contributed full $24,000 to 401K through my employer in 2017. Can I contribute additionally in traditional IRA on top of $24,000? If no, can I contribute in Roth IRA? what is the guideline for contribution in Roth IRA and what is the max amount that can be contributed?

even if you contribute to your 401(k) account, you may still contribute to a Roth IRA / a Traditional IRA; It will not affect the amount you are able to contribute as you're 50 or older, you may make a "catch-up" contribution of an additional $6k, for a total of $24k;aslongas you have a 401(k) or similar retirement plan at work, your eligibility to contribute to an IRA depends on your income and which type of IRA you'd like to contribute to a IRA however, your participation in the 401(k) plan may affect your ability to take a tax deduction on your return for any Traditional IRA contributions;




If no, can I contribute in Roth IRA? what is the guideline for contribution in Roth IRA and what is the max amount that can be contributed?=====>same as traditional IRA.you may as said also contribute to RIRA; your modified adjusted gross income is below the full contribution threshold for your tax filing status, you can contribute up to $6,500 or your total earned income for the year, whichever is less.And if you're above the "no contribution" amount, you can't contribute to a Roth IRA for 2017. You need to contact a retirement admin /planner for more professional help.
