Frequently Asked Questions
Can I deduct IRA contributions on state taxes?
Kentucky treats IRA contributions like the federal rules. If (and only if) your contribution is federally deductible, it is generally deductible on state income tax too.
What if I make too much?
A non-deductible traditional IRA can still grow tax-deferred, or look at a Roth IRA / backdoor Roth.
