Can I make IRA and Roth IRA contributions while in retirement?

You absolutely can make IRA and Roth IRA contributions while in retirement. You can do so at any point in your life. However, you must be working while in retirement; you can only make IRA contributions with the income you earned from this work; and you cannot contribute more to your IRA or Roth IRA than you earned in that tax year.

How much can you contribute to an IRA after retirement?

Can I contribute to an IRA if I'm retired?

There is no age limit to contributing to an IRA, meaning that you can do so at any point in life. However, you can only contribute earned income to this account, not investment income. So even if you’re technically retired you must be working in some form to make additional IRA contributions.
