For 2008 if contributions on your behalf are made only to Roth IRAs, your contribution limit will generally be the lesser of $5,000 or your taxable compensation for the year. If you were age 50 or older before 2009 and contributions on your behalf were made only to Roth IRAs, your contribution limit for 2008 will generally be the lesser of $6,000 or your taxable compensation for the year. However, if your modified adjusted gross income (AGI) is above a certain amount, your contribution limit may be reduced.

Married couples with a joint annual gross income of less than $166,000 may contribute $5000 (for 2008-2009) to a Roth IRA. Those married couples earning between $166,000 and $176,000 may make a partial contribution to a Roth IRA.
