Individual Retirement Accounts (IRA)

 

Federally insured by NCUA

Start Your Future Now

It’s never too early to plan for your retirement. Ensure a prosperous future for yourself by investing in a Traditional or Roth Individual Retirement Account (IRA). Accumulate funds for your retirement while benefiting from potential tax advantages. Traditional and Roth IRAs feature particular tax benefits, which we explain in the boxes below. Most members who have taxable compensation (employment income) qualify for either type of IRA and the NCUA insures up to $250,000 (separately from other accounts).

Traditional IRA

Money you contribute into a traditional IRA may be tax deductible¹. Earnings on contributions will not get taxed until you withdraw the money. For example, if you make $40,000 in a year, and put $3,000 of it into a traditional IRA, you’d pay income tax on $37,000. Additionally, your contributions grow tax-free throughout the years. When you withdraw the money after age 59.5, the money gets taxed as income.

Roth IRA

Unlike a traditional IRA, the money you contribute to this type of IRA is never tax-deductible. This means that you pay taxes on all of your taxable compensation. But none of your IRA savings are taxed when you withdraw money from a Roth account. However, in order to reap the tax benefits, your account must have been opened for at least five tax years and you must be older than age 59.5.
