Phase-Out Thresholds (2024)
- Single: £138,000 – £153,000
- Married filing jointly: £218,000 – £228,000
- Married filing separately: £0 – £10,000
How to Use
- Enter your age, modified AGI, and filing status.
- Select the tax year and planned contribution.
- Provide expected annual return and inflation for real-value projections.
- Review allowed contributions, projected balance, and earnings.
