Prepare in advance to achieve your retirement goals by considering an individual retirement account (IRA).
Secure Your Retirement Savings
Whether retirement is looming or distant, the tax advantages offered by individual retirement accounts (IRAs) can be invaluable. Combining an IRA with an employer-sponsored plan like a 401(k), if available, allows you to maximize your retirement investments.
Two IRA Options to Consider
There are two primary types of IRAs tailored to individual needs:
Traditional IRA
A Traditional IRA offers potential tax deductions on contributions, contingent upon income, tax filing status, and participation in an employer-sponsored retirement plan such as a 401(k). This IRA provides annual tax benefits during your working years.
Roth IRA
Contributions to a Roth IRA are not tax-deductible, but qualified withdrawals (made after retirement) can be tax-free, subject to specific conditions based on the account owner’s age and duration of account ownership.
