Individual Retirement Accounts
Traditional IRA
First Reliance FCU offers a share savings IRA that pays a competitive dividend rate quarterly on the average daily balance in your IRA account.
A minimum of $1,000.00 is required to set up a share certificate.
Individual retirement accounts are a smart way to save for the future. A traditional IRA can be opened and funded without any employer participation. Contributions and/or earnings are tax-deferred until retirement. Unlike many employer plans, money in the account is always accessible; however, until age 59 1/2 there is a 10 percent early distribution penalty unless you qualify for an exemption due to one of the following: disability, qualifying education expenses, unemployment, qualifying first-home purchases, death, or receipt of your IRA assets in equal payments over your life expectancy.
Members under age 70 1/2 may contribute to an IRA. The contribution limits change annually. Check with the credit union for more information.
