Rules of the Roth IRA

April 03, 2023 • Telton W. Hall

Eligibility: You can contribute to a Roth IRA if you have earned income and your modified adjusted gross income (MAGI) is within the limits set by the IRS. For 2022, the contribution limit is $6,000 for those under 50, and $7,000 for those 50 or older.
Tax Treatment: Contributions to a Roth IRA are made with after-tax dollars, meaning you don't get an immediate tax deduction. However, qualified withdrawals are tax-free.
Withdrawals: You can withdraw contributions at any time without penalty, but earnings can only be withdrawn tax-free if you're 59 1/2 or older, and the account has been open for at least five years. There are also exceptions for certain life events, such as disability or first-time home purchase.
Conversion: You can convert a traditional IRA or other eligible retirement plan to a Roth IRA, but you'll have to pay taxes on the amount converted.

It's important to note that Roth IRA rules and limits can change from year to year, so it's important to stay up to date with the latest information from the IRS - If you have any questions please make an appointment with me

Are you getting what you want or are you putting yourselves in a position someone could try and get the better of you?
