Each IRA type has different tax advantages:

Traditional IRA

• Contributions may be tax-deductible, reducing your current taxable income.

• Earnings grow tax-deferred, meaning you don’t pay taxes until withdrawal.

Roth IRA

• Contributions are not tax-deductible, but earnings grow tax-free.

• Qualified distributions are also tax-free

Rollover IRA

• Maintains the tax-deferred status of your retirement assets when moving from another plan.
