What you save today could transform the way you live tomorrow. With an Individual Retirement Account (IRA), it’s easy to save a little at a time and grow a fund that can support you after you retire.

An Individual Retirement Account is a tax-advantaged savings account created by the IRS. At our credit union, we offer two types of retirement accounts: Traditional IRAs and Roth IRAs. Depending on the account you choose to open, you can either defer or avoid taxes altogether when you contribute to or withdraw funds.
With Traditional IRAs, you can deduct account contributions from your taxes. You’ll pay taxes on these funds later when you withdraw–normally when you retire.
Contributions
Contribute pre-tax dollars. Dividends may be tax-deferred.*
Deductions
Contributions may be deducted from income tax returns.*
Contribution Limit
$6,000 contribution limit per year. Additional “catch-up” contributions of $1,000 per year are allowed beginning at age 50.
Withdrawals
Withdrawals can begin at age 59½. Mandatory withdrawals at age 72. Early withdrawals subject to penalty.**
Funds Federally Insured
to $250,000
With Roth IRAs, you’ll pay taxes on any contributions you make now. Later (again, typically when you retire) you can withdraw funds tax-free.
Contributions
Contribute after-tax dollars. Earnings and principal are 100% tax free upon withdrawal.*
Deductions
Contributions are not tax deductible.
Contribution Limit
$6,000 contribution limit per year. Additional “catch-up” contributions of $1,000 per year are allowed beginning at age 50.
Withdrawals
No mandatory distribution age. Principal contributions can be withdrawn without penalty. Early withdrawals on interest subject to penalty.**
Funds Federally Insured
to $250,000
*Consult your tax advisor.
**Certain exceptions apply, such as healthcare, purchasing your first home, etc.
How you invest in your IRA is up to you. With both types of IRAs–Traditional and Roth–you have the option of saving via an IRA Share account or IRA Share Certificate.
If you’re opening an IRA for the first time or need a place to hold your IRA while you plan to reinvest, an IRA Share account is a good option. There’s no minimum balance or term requirement, and it pays a variable rate.
Looking for something with a higher fixed rate? Consider opening an IRA Share Certificate. They require a minimum balance and term, but typically pay a higher fixed rate than an IRA Share account.

Depending on whether you choose a Traditional IRA or a Roth IRA, deposits you make and interest you earn are either tax-deferred or tax-free.
