What are the potential tax benefits of an Individual Retirement Account?

Both Traditional and Roth IRAs provide tax breaks. But it’s a matter of timing when you get to claim them. Traditional IRA contributions are tax-deductible on both state and federal tax returns for the year you make the contribution; withdrawals in retirement are taxed at ordinary income tax rates. Roth IRAs provide no tax break for contributions, but earnings and withdrawals are generally tax-free. Please consult your tax professional or financial planner for further guidance.
