Apologies if this has been asked here before. Here's my situation and question:
For tax year 2013, I've already maxed out a Roth IRA ($5500). I'm on the way to maxing out my yearly amount for contributions to my 401K at work ($17,500). It's actually a Thrift Savings Plan (TSP) since I work for Uncle Sam. TSP just started offering a Roth TSP option this year. Can I contribute to the Roth TSP, even though I've already done the full Roth IRA? Or are those limits independent of each other?
I believe I can, so long as the combined total of my contributions to the Roth TSP and Traditional TSP don't exceed $17,500. I've googled the heck out of this but can't find any answers to this exact situation.
Thanks in advance for any advice!
