IRA
A Traditional IRA (Individual Retirement Account) could be beneficial for long-term retirement planning. PFCU offers a Traditional IRA Savings account and IRA Share Certificate. Many of our members find that income from IRAs augments their Social Security benefits in retirement.
IRA contributions may be made in a lump sum, by regular deposits, or by payroll deduction. You may also roll over a lump sum you receive from another qualified retirement account. We can help you figure out your options.
Contributions may be tax-deductible depending on your income, marital status and whether you have a retirement plan at work.
Taxes are deferred on earnings. Withdrawals can be made IRS penalty-free at age 59-1/2 and are taxed as ordinary income.
Additional benefit comes from possibly being in a lower tax bracket at retirement age.
