Your age is irrelevant as to whether you can put money into an IRA. I am age 55 and do not earn any money from a job. (I have pensions, dividends etc) I am not eligible to put money in an IRA.
I have friends over age 60 who go to work. They are eligible to put money in an IRA.
I'd also add that if your spouse is still w*rking, as mine is, you can contribute to a spousal IRA even if you have no earned income.
