Still Unable to connect Etrade Roth
I have 2 accounts through Etrade - 1 brokerage and 1 Roth IRA. My Brokerage account links fine, but even after the recent announcement of bug fixes I still am not able to connect my Roth IRA. When I try to add an account the alert says all accounts have already been added.
This appears to be a continuation of the issue that was announced as closed here

Same issue here, except for I had partial success. I had previously been able to add my regular brokerage account with Etrade. Today, after seeing the note regarding the fixed Etrade issue with retirement accounts, I went in to add my two retirement accounts (one traditional IRA and one Roth IRA). It found the traditional IRA and seems to have added it successfully. But it did not find the Roth IRA as something that was able to be linked. So something still seems off with Etrade and (some) retirement accounts.

Interestingly, when I first setup Simplifi a month or so ago, I was able to add all of my wife's Etrade accounts without any issue. Brokerage, IRA, Roth IRA, and SEP IRA all setup fine with no issue. But my accounts would only setup the brokerage, and now today, my IRA. But Roth IRA a no go.

Same thing is still happening for me. My Etrade Roth IRA account doesn't show up, but my Traditional IRA and other accounts from Etrade do.

I just saw that this discussion got closed.
I re-added my etrade account. Now in addition to my brokerage account my Rollover IRA now shows up but my Roth IRA still doesn't show up.

Hey everyone, we're sorry to hear you all are still experiencing an issue connecting your Roth IRA accounts to Quicken Simplifi. We'd like to go ahead and get this reported; to do so please provide the following info:
- Has there been any activity in the account in the last 90 days?
- Is the account considered an external account (i.e. are you redirected to a different website when selecting the account on the bank's website?)
- Is the account a subtype of a different account?
- Has the bank made any recent changes to its website or sign-in process?
- If the issue is occurring on an existing Quicken Simplifi account, the name of the account as it appears in Quicken Simplifi.
- The name of the account, as it appears on the bank's website.
- A screenshot of the Accounts Summary page from the bank's website (the page that lists all accounts and balances - feel free to redact any private info) that has a wide enough scope to show the page URL (this must be taken from a web browser and not a mobile browser).
- A screenshot of the Add Account screen in Quicken Simplifi showing that the Roth IRA account is missing at account discovery.

Hi, I understand that Coach Natalie said the situation was resolved, but I am still unable to add my ROTH IRA with E Trade. All of my other E Trade accounts show up.

I have the same issue with ETrade. I tried adding my ETrade account for the first time today. I have 2 brokerage accounts, 1 IRA and 1 RothIRA with ETrade. When I added ETrade in Simplifi the only listed are the 2 brokerage accounts and 1 IRA. The RothIRA is not listed.

A Reddit post mentioned (in the Simplifi subreddit) that if they removed the word "Roth" from Simpifi, by renaming how it looks in Simplifi, they were able to import their Roth from Fidelity.
Might be worth a try.

I'm trying to post a reply to this, but it is not taking it. Not sure if it had too many characters or some weird embedded character or something else going. So a more brief response is that it does seem to be related to the word Roth in the account alias you have setup at Etrade (not the name in Simplifi). I removed Roth from the account alias at Etrade and was able to get the account added successfully. I will post more details if I can figure out why my longer response was not making it through.
ADDED:
Here is a longer response I was trying to add to the Etrade issue thread, but for some reason it was not saving it. It details the steps I went through to get the Roth IRA added successfully. Pass it along if you want. For the moment, my Roth account is connected in Simplifi!
The word Roth in the account alias at Etrade seems to make a difference in trying to add it in Simplifi.
But not in the name in Simplifi (because I had no account for the Roth IRA created yet because it could not find it at E-Trade. It seems to actually be if the account name in E-Trade has Roth in it (actually the Account Alias is there wording).
In E-Trade, the Account Alias was set to Toby Roth IRA. Simplifi reports that it does not find any account available to be linked.
I changed the Account Alias in E-Trade to Toby X IRA. Went back to Add Account in Simplifi and it found it! I cancelled out so it would not actually add it yet.
Then I went back to E-Trade and changed the alias back to Toby Roth IRA. Repeated the Add Account process in Simplifi, but could not find the account this time.
Back to E-Trade again and changed the alias to Toby XRoth IRA. Simplifi still could not find it to add. So apparently if the word roth is anywhere in the alias for the account, that somehow causes it to have a problem finding it.
Back to E-Trade one last time and changed the alias to Toby X IRA again. Add Account in Simplifi found it again and this time I completed the process and it added the Roth IRA successfully to Simplifi.
So, if anyone having this issue has a similar alias for their Roth IRA, you may want to try this.
Once in Simplifi, I was able to change the name that is shown in the account list to have the word Roth in it. Don't think it caused a problem, but time will tell.
I'm afraid to change the alias in E-Trade back to the one with Roth in it, so for now I will just leave it as Toby X IRA.

As crazy as it sounds, this solution is working for me as well. In ETrade by account nickname was "Roth IRA" and it did not show up in Simplifi when trying to add the account. In ETrade I changed the nickname to "RIRA", and was then able to add the account in Simplifi. In Simplifi I have changed the name to "Roth IRA", and in ETrade I have changed the nickname back to "Roth IRA". So far everything seems to be working.
As someone who works in software development, I can't begin to imagine why the nickname on the account would determine whether Simplifi sees the account and can add it.

All,
Remember to leave feedback as @Coach Natalie posted above.
Looks like we've helped get everyone closer to finding the cause of the problem (Simplifi not importing if the word "Roth" is on the account you're trying to import.)

OK, there is no possible way that having the work Roth in the account name could make a difference….😕
Oh, wait. I stand corrected. 😆 Something about that DOES seem to fix it…
But not in the name is Simplifi (because I had no account for the Roth IRA created yet because it could not find it at E-Trade. It seems to actually be if the account name in E-Trade has Roth in it (actually the Account Alias is there wording).
