You can save on your present taxes with an Individual Retirement Account, by deducting your qualified contributions from your taxable income. Depending on your situation, you may be able to deduct all or part of their IRA contributions from current income taxes. The deductible amount depends on your income, marital status, and whether you're an active participant in an employer sponsored plan as defined by the Internal Revenue Service.
With an Individual Retirement Account, you also defer taxes by putting them off until you retire, when you may be in a lower tax bracket. You may want to consult your tax advisor to review your particular situation on the tax-deductible status of an IRA. Regardless of the amount you'll be able to save now on taxes, an IRA is a smart way for you to save for a secure retirement. For more general information, you can speak to one our representatives.
If You're Changing Employers, An IRA Rollover Makes Sense. If you are retiring or changing jobs and anticipate withdrawing money from your employer's retirement plan, you may find yourself in a tax bind, unless you roll over your assets into an IRA or another qualified plan. For more information about IRA Rollovers or opening a new IRA just return the Investment Account Application below or give us a call.
You must complete the rollover within 60 days from the date you receive the assets from your old IRA in order to qualify and not pay the mandatory 20% withholding and possibly other penalties as well. For more information about IRA Rollovers or opening a new IRA give us a call at 678-406-4000.
