asked

My wife was an employee with the New York Times and they are abolishing their pension program. She paid into the pension and is due a settlement. If she gets a check for the settlement amount, can we split this money in half and equally distribute it into both her and my Money Market IRAs to serve as our annual contributions? If so, will she incur a tax penalty for depositing half her money into my IRA or will there be no penalty because it was distributed into investments?
