Traditional IRA
A Traditional IRA (An Individual Retirement Account other than a Roth IRA, SIMPLE IRA or Education IRA) is a special tax-deferred savings plan authorized by the Federal Government to encourage you to accumulate money for retirement. All the earnings you accumulate in your IRA remain tax deferred until you make withdrawals from the account.
Roth IRA
A Roth IRA is an individual retirement account to which participants are able to make annual non-deductible contributions. Unlike a traditional IRA in which your earnings are tax-deferred, Roth IRA earnings can be tax free.
Coverdell Educational Savings Account
Formerly known as Education IRAs, Coverdell Education Savings Accounts are an ideal way for you to begin saving money to help a child, grandchild, or any young person you know pay for higher education expenses down the road. Contributions to a Coverdell Education Savings Account are not tax-deductible, but distributions used to pay for the qualified education costs of the named beneficiary are generally tax free.
“Catch-up” Contributions
The Internal Revenue Code provides for dollar limitations on benefits and contributions under qualified retirement plans. Get more information on contribution limits or contact one of our Customer Service Representatives for more information on “Catch-up” Contributions and eligibility requirements.
