What is an IRA Retirement Plan?

An Individual retirement account (IRA) is a long-term savings and investment account primarily for self-employed individuals and income earners. Self-employed individuals who do not have access to employment-sponsored retirement accounts can use an IRA account to plan for retirement. IRA retirement planning can be a great way to save for the future and enjoy tax deductions. It is important to save money in an IRA account for a long time to enjoy its full benefits. There are different types of IRAs with the two most common being the traditional IRA and the Roth IRA.

The Traditional IRA

The Traditional IRA

The Traditional IRA is a tax-deductible individual retirement account where contributions or payment reduces taxable income, but withdrawals are taxed as ordinary income.

The ROTH IRA

The ROTH IRA

The ROTH IRA is a special IRA where taxes are paid on every contribution made into the account, but withdrawals are tax-free.
You can open an IRA account through a broker, an investment company, or a bank.

Frequently Asked Questions

A traditional IRA is a way to save and invest for your future while receiving tax benefits. In a traditional IRA, you do not need to pay tax fees on contributions until you are ready to withdraw your money. Traditional IRAs have a few rules regarding taxes, withdrawals, and contributions that you should be aware of before opening and contributing to an IRA account.

Rollover IRAs allow you to move from an employer-sponsored retirement account like the 401k to an IRA. IRA rollovers can help you preserve the tax-deductible status of your assets and give you access to the benefits and investment opportunities of an individual retirement account. With an IRA rollover, your money grows tax-deferred, and you should not have to pay early withdrawal penalties at the time of the rollover.

A rollover IRA can be considered the IRA it was moved into at the time of the rollover. For example, if a 401k account was transferred into a traditional IRA, then the rollover IRA is a traditional IRA. If a 401k or 403b transfers into a ROTH IRA, the rollover is a ROTH IRA. This means a rollover IRA is a traditional IRA if the employer-sponsored retirement account is transferred into a traditional IRA. Additionally two IRAs can be combined when you roll money from one IRA to another.
