Is a Backdoor Roth IRA allowed by the IRS?

Yes. While the IRS does not officially label the strategy a “Backdoor Roth IRA,” current tax law allows nondeductible Traditional IRA contributions and Roth conversions. Secure 2.0 and other recent legislation have continued to permit conversions.

As long as contributions and conversions are done properly and reported accurately, the strategy is generally considered compliant with current tax rules.

However, since tax regulations can evolve, it’s wise to stay informed and consult a tax advisor when using this approach.
