I have a Chinese client who wants to buy a house in the United States, but she can only bring $40,000 into her account due to restrictions. She is asking me and three other friends to help her by receiving her money into our accounts. What will be the taxable consequences if she sends me $40,000 to my account?

I divorced in 2015 and receive SSI income, alimony, and a distribution from my ex-husband's 401k. I am on permanent disability and do not work. The distribution has increased my income and resulted in higher taxes. I am unsure about the best type of IRA to open to reduce my tax burden. Should I open a traditional IRA and transfer all the money, or just contribute annually? What options do I have to lower my taxes in this situation?
