can i do a roth conversion for 2015 in 2016
1 You can still make your annual contribution if you also convert money from a tax-deductible account (like a traditional IRA) to a Roth in the same year. 2  You can contribute to a Roth even if you participate in a retirement plan through your employer.ne quirk in the IRA laws is that you have 15 months to make a contribution for the current tax year. In 2015, for instance, you can make a contribution any time from January 1, 2015 to April 15, 2016 (the tax filing deadline).
