Can my client fund their 2022 Traditional IRA with a loan from their margin account?

IRS doesn't care where they get the money for the IRA contribution.

They can find the money in a gutter, for all it matters. No one cares where the money comes from.

Perhaps it also needs to be stated: this margin account cannot be how they "earned" money. Eligibility for contributing to an IRA is not by margin investing.
