Roth IRA Basics
What is a Roth IRA?
Roth Individual Retirement Accounts (Roth IRAs) are a powerful retirement savings tool. Counter to Traditional IRAs, Roth IRAs have a tax advantage that allow you to grow your retirement savings tax-free and withdraw the funds tax and penalty-free inside certain parameters.
As part of our planning process, we can help you decide which retirement account fits your financial goals. We’ll work with you to help manage and fund your accounts.
Do I qualify for a Roth IRA?
In 2022, you can open and fund a Roth IRA if your earned income is under $129,000 if you are filing single or under $204,000 if your are married filing jointly.
You can open and fund a Roth IRA even if you are covered by a retirement plan through your employer. Contributions to a Roth IRA are made with after-tax dollars so your contributions are not tax deductible.
How will my Roth IRA affect my taxes?
This is where the Traditional IRA and Roth IRA are different. Roth IRA contributions are made with after-tax dollars as payroll and income taxes have already been paid for from your gross earnings. Your account grow tax-free and you pay no taxes on those dollars when you withdraw them after age 59.
