INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ACCOUNTS (IRAs)
An Individual Retirement Account is a personal savings plan that offers tax advantages to an individual who sets aside money for his/her retirement. Langley Federal offers fixed rate accounts for terms 12, 18, 30 and 60 months as well as Flex IRAs. 

  • Roth IRA –
    Contributions to a Roth IRA are not deductible.  Distributions considered to be "qualified," generally are tax and penalty free. Tax and penalty free benefits make the Roth IRA the most exciting new personal savings option since IRAs were first permitted in 1975.  Even more exciting, once the account has been open for five successive tax years, owners may   take tax-free distributions of earnings if they meet certain criteria.  Modified adjusted gross income limits apply.  Please check with your financial advisor for eligibility.
  • Traditional IRA –
    A Traditional IRA is easy to maintain and typically offers two important tax advantages: (1) every penny of the earnings in your Traditional IRA is 100% free from federal income tax until you withdraw it from your account; and, (2) you may be eligible to deduct your total annual Traditional IRA contributions on your federal income tax return.  Consult your tax advisor.  Tax-deferred earnings, regular deposits and the passage of time will help your money grow faster for retirement.
