Benefits of a Traditional IRA
A Traditional IRA lets you reduce your taxable income while saving for retirement. Your contributions are fully or partially tax-deductible, depending on your income and tax-filing status. For 2009, the maximum contribution is $5,000 for individuals under age 50 and $6,000 for individuals age 50 and above.

A Traditional IRA can be structured as a Money market Account or as a share certificate. IRA share certificates require a minimum deposit of $500. IRA Money Market Accounts may be opened with as little as $100, with ongoing contributions added to your account through Direct Deposit.

Benefits of a Roth IRA
With a Roth IRA, your contributions are not tax deductible, but you may withdraw contributions tax-free at any time. Your earnings grow tax-free, and you may withdraw dividends earned free of any taxes and penalties if you hold the account for five years and are buying your first home, or if you are 59 1/2. For 2009, the maximum contribution is $5,000 for individuals under age 50 and $6,000 for individuals age 50 and above.
