Roth IRA

A Roth IRA offers one of the most flexible ways to save for retirement: your contributions come from your savings (after you’ve paid your usual taxes), so that every qualified dollar you withdraw in retirement can be tax-free.

Why choose a Roth IRA?

Tax-free growth & qualified withdrawals

Your savings grow tax-free, and qualified withdrawals in retirement can also be tax-free. You’ve already done the hard work of paying taxes; your future self gets the reward.

No Required minimum distributions (RMDs)

Unlike a Traditional IRA, Roth IRAs don’t require you to take Required minimum distributions (RMDs)at age 73. Your savings can keep growing tax-free well after retirement age.

Ultimate Flexibility

You can withdraw your contributions at any time without paying taxes or penalties. Earnings can be withdrawn tax and penalty-free only as qualified withdrawals, meaning you must be at least 59½ and the account must have been open for at least five years.

Images are hypothetical. Assuming your current age is 35 years, projections assume a retirement age of 65, an illustrative 7% annual return minus a 0.85% annual fee (6.15% net return). Projections are hypothetical and do not account for inflation.

Staying on track means knowing your limits. You can still contribute for the 2025 tax year until the April 15, 2026 filing deadline. Eligibility depends on income; contributions phase out at higher earnings**.

$7,500 per year

Age 50 or older

$8,600 per year

**The IRS limits who can contribute directly to a Roth IRA based on income. Your eligibility depends on your Modified Adjusted Gross Income (MAGI) and tax filing status. At higher income levels, contributions phase out, and once you pass the upper threshold, you can’t contribute directly for that tax year.
