If you are single, head of household or married filing separately, your contribution limit of $5,500 begins to phase out when your modified AGI reaches $61,000 and is zero beginning at $71,000. If you are married, filing jointly, or a qualified widow or widower, your contribution limit of $5,500 begins to phase out when your modified AGI reaches $98000 and is zero beginning at $118,000. So since they dont have an income limitation and are not covered by another pension plan, they both should be able to contribute $5,500 for a combined result of $11,000 to a Roth IRA
