Course Description

No matter what stage of life you're in, it is never too soon to start planning for retirement, as even the small decisions you make today can have a big impact on your future.

While you might already be invested in an employer-sponsored plan, an Individual Retirement Account (IRA) allows you to save for your retirement on the side, and also potentially save on taxes. There are different types of IRAs, too, with different rules and benefits.

This CE/CPE tax webinar covers the eligibility requirements for taxpayers to contribute to a Traditional IRA and Roth IRA.

Taxes, whether we admit it or not, drive a lot of our personal finance decisions. Avoiding or lowering them can influence where we choose to live, what kind of car we buy, where we send our children to school, whether we purchase a house and many other everyday decisions. Everyone tries to limit the amount of taxes they pay. Taxes play a large role when we invest for retirement, as well.

One potential way to minimize taxes is by investing in a Roth IRA. With a Roth IRA, you contribute after-tax dollars and withdraw any earnings tax-free in retirement. By contrast, although you generally get a tax deduction on your contributions to a traditional IRA—and the money grows tax-free—you have to pay taxes when you withdraw the money in retirement.

With a Roth IRA, you contribute after-tax dollars, your money grows tax-free, and you can generally make tax- and penalty-free withdrawals after age 59½. With a Traditional IRA, you contribute pre- or after-tax dollars, your money grows tax-deferred, and withdrawals are taxed as current income after age 59½.

This CE/CPE course also covers how to determine the deductibility of Traditional IRA contributions, Savers Tax credit determination, contribution deadline, and other miscellaneous issues. It will provide better insights on retirement planning.
