Health Savings Account (HSA)

Save for future qualified medical expenses on a tax-free basis! A Health Savings Account is designed as a tax-exempt trust or custodial account for paying or reimbursing qualified medical expenses of you, your spouse, and your dependents. An HSA offers unlimited check and debit transactions, with no minimum balance required!

A Health Savings Account could be right for you, if in any month, you:

Are covered under a High-Deductible Health Plan (HDHP) (on the first day of such month)
Are not covered by any other health plan that is not an HDHP (with certain exceptions for plans providing preventive care and limited types of permitted insurance and coverage)
Are not enrolled in Medicare
Cannot be claimed as a dependent on another individual’s tax return

Individual Retirement Accounts (IRA)

Start saving for the future now -you’ll thank yourself later! Let Whitaker Bank help you prepare for retirement by setting up an IRA that’s right for you. Open an Individual Retirement Account with as little as $500 and start saving today!

Traditional IRAs allow you to defer taxes on your earnings (provided your withdrawal is qualified). Also, based on your household income, certain contributions are tax deductible in the year they are made. To contribute to a traditional IRA, you must have earned income (or your spouse must have earned income).*
Roth IRAs provide no deduction for contributions, but instead provide a benefit that isn’t available for any other form of retirement savings. If you meet certain requirements, all earnings are tax-free when you or your beneficiary withdraw them. Other benefits include avoiding the early distribution penalty on certain withdrawals, and avoiding the need to take required minimum distributions.*
Coverdell Education IRAs are non-deductible accounts that feature tax-free withdrawals for a very specific purpose – your child’s education expenses.*
SEP IRAs are employer-sponsored retirement plans through which an employer makes deductible contributions directly to each eligible employee’s traditional IRA.*

* Consult your tax advisor for more specific information when determining your eligibility for a Traditional or Roth IRA contribution or withdrawal.
