An IRA Savings Account is a tax-deferred retirement investment vehicle that grows savings over time while keeping deposited funds fairly liquid and free. Interest rates on these accounts are the same as the rate offered on share accounts. The two types of IRAs we offer are the Traditional IRA and the Roth IRA.
An IRA Savings Account could be useful if you are moving earnings out of another IRA investment, such as an IRA CD. By moving earnings from an IRA CD that has reached maturity into an IRA Savings Account, you can avoid paying taxes on earnings. If and when you decide to open an IRA Savings Account, make sure there are no fees associated with account management. Also, remember to assign a beneficiary to the account.
Traditional IRAs protect your dividends from taxes until they are withdrawn, as opposed to dividends from a non-IRA savings account that you must report to the IRS on a 1099-INT. Contributions up to a certain limit, which differs from year to year, are tax deductible in a Traditional IRA for the year in which they are made.
Roth IRA contributions cannot be deducted, on the other hand. Withdrawals (or distributions) are what give the Roth an advantage, though, as you can take a tax-free distribution for any reason after 5 years from the date of your first contribution. There are even several exceptions to the 5-year period that allow for tax-free distributions, including reaching the age of 59½, becoming disabled, or making a first-time home purchase. Unlike the Traditional IRA, the Roth version does not require distributions based on age. The Roth IRA is probably most similar to a standard savings account after 5 years, as you are able to deposit and withdraw in a similar fashion.

Many people who have either a Traditional IRA or a Roth IRA are looking for other safe ways to grow their retirement assets. One option that you don’t want to overlook is an IRA Certificate of Deposit.
IRA Certificates are a viable option for building your savings for retirement. But before you get started, it’s important to know the difference between the two types of retirement accounts:
Both accounts have rules and restrictions you will want to discuss with your tax or retirement professional.
With IRA Certificates, you get the “best of both worlds” in a sense; the tax benefits of an IRA and the security of a Certificate of Deposit.
