Roth IRA
With the Roth IRA, deposits are not tax deductible, but earnings are tax free if certain requirements are met. An existing IRA can be converted to a Roth IRA. Your annual income level determines whether you can contribute to a Roth IRA or convert an existing IRA to a Roth IRA.
Traditional IRA
Individuals with earned income may be able to contribute to a Traditional IRA. Contributions may be deductible, depending on an individual's income level and whether he or she is an active participant in a qualified retirement plan. Income taxes are deferred.
Contributions for the 2024 and 2025 Tax Years
Contributions for the 2024 and 2025 tax years will be $7,000 for individuals and $14,000 for married couples who file jointly. An additional $1,000 "catch up" contribution will still be made available for individuals who are 50 or older.
More Flexible Withdrawals
With either IRA, withdrawals before age 59 1/2 can be made without the 10% IRS early distribution penalty for the purchase of a first home (up to $10,000) or higher education expenses.
