It’s never too early or too late to start saving for retirement. Planning for life after your career can be challenging – but we’re here to help. IRAs give you competitive credit union rates as you save for your future. Open your IRA with any amount and make regular contributions through payroll deduction, by mail or in person and know you have made a secure investment in your retirement planning.
Choose the IRA that is right for you:
Traditional IRA
With this IRA, you may qualify for a tax-deductible contribution—and that means your overall tax bill at the time of funding will be lower.
Roth IRA
Contributions are made with after-tax dollars. At retirement, both your contributions and the earnings may generally be taken out as tax-free withdrawals.
IRA Features
- No monthly service fees
- No minimum balance requirements
- Contributions may be made in "lump sums" or by setting up payroll deduction or automatic transfers. The best time to save money for retirement is every time you get money.
- Your tax adviser can offer more guidance on which type of IRA may be best for your needs. Maui Federal Credit Union cannot provide tax advice regarding IRAs. Of course, we are always here to answer your questions and assist you with opening an IRA.
IRA Benefits
- Put money aside so you can enjoy the retirement you deserve
- May produce a great wealth-transfer method to pass money onto your heirs if you don’t spend it all yourself
- IRAs provide a great tax benefit. Earnings within Traditional IRAs are tax-deferred until they are distributed. Earnings within Roth IRAs may be distributed tax-free.
- Enjoy peace of mind knowing IRAs are federally insured up to $250,0002, separately from other accounts you maintain at Maui Federal Credit Union
