Individual Retirement Account (IRA)

Hello offers both traditional and Roth IRAs to help you build a path toward a relaxing retirement. These two types of IRAs are similar, with the biggest distinction being how they’re taxed.


Roth IRAs

Roth IRAs are funded with income that has already been taxed. A Roth IRA allows tax-free withdrawals provided certain conditions are met.

  • Roth IRAs are best when you think your taxes will be higher in retirement than they are right now.
  • The annual amount you can contribute changes periodically. Check with your tax advisor for current contribution limits. 
  • A Roth IRA is not available to people earning more than a specified annual income. Check with your tax advisor for current income limits.
  • Contributions are not tax-deductible.

Traditional IRAs

Traditional IRAs are funded with income that has not been taxed yet. The IRS assesses income taxes on the money when it is withdrawn. 

  • Traditional IRAs are best when you think the taxes you are paying right now are higher than the taxes you will pay during retirement.
  • The annual amount you can contribute changes periodically. Check with your tax advisor for current contribution limits. 
  • Required minimum distributions (RMDs) must begin at age 72.
  • Anyone with earned income is eligible to open a traditional IRA.
  • Contributions are tax-deductible.
