Roth IRA | Heritage Credit Union – Secure Your Tax-Free Retirement Growth

Why Choose a Roth IRA?

The Roth Individual Retirement Account (IRA) is a powerful retirement savings tool that allows you to grow your money tax-free. Unlike traditional IRAs, your contributions are made with after-tax income — meaning that qualified withdrawals during retirement are completely tax-free. For members of Heritage Credit Union in the USA and Canada, this means your future income stays yours, without surprises.

Tax-Free Growth

All investment earnings in your Roth IRA grow tax-free, giving your savings maximum compounding potential for decades.

Flexible Withdrawals

Withdraw contributions anytime without penalty — perfect for those who want flexibility with long-term security.

Secure & Reliable

Managed and insured by Heritage Credit Union, your Roth IRA offers protection, trust, and transparency you can count on.

Eligibility and Contribution Rules

To open a Roth IRA with Heritage Credit Union, you must have earned income within IRS-defined limits. Members across the United States and Canada can participate, subject to local tax laws and residency requirements. Annual contribution limits are determined by age and filing status, ensuring you can save steadily toward your retirement goals.

Roth IRA vs Traditional IRA — Which Is Better?

Both IRAs are excellent retirement vehicles, but they differ in tax treatment:

Roth IRA: Contributions are made with after-tax income; withdrawals are tax-free.
Traditional IRA: Contributions may be tax-deductible, but withdrawals are taxed as income.
