Are You on Track for the IRA Contribution Deadline?

This article discusses your options for making IRA contributions for the past and current tax years.

Last chance for 2012!

April 15th, 2013 is your FINAL opportunity for an IRA Contribution for the 2012 tax year!

Adding to your Retirement Savings Now can provide certain Federal Income tax advantages.

  • You can still make up to a $5,000 tax deductible contribution for the 2012 tax year, if you qualify for this tax deduction (1).
  • If you are age 50 or older and qualify for this deduction, you can contribute up to an additional, tax-deductible $1,000 for 2012(2).

April 15th, 2013, is the deadline for contributing to a Traditional IRA (and a ROTH IRA) for the 2012 tax year and tax deduction.

You can also contribute your 2013 contribution right now!

Roll over to another IRA at any time!

  • If you have IRAs at a financial institution and you are not happy with the performance or lack of service you have the right to make a rollover to a Rollover IRA. You do not have to wait until April 15th.
  • By consolidating your retirement savings into one IRA account you make it easier to manage your retirement assets and review their overall performance. This may well reduce your annual maintenance fees too.
  • Be sure you check with your current providers to determine whether there are any withdrawal or termination fees.

Before investing in any portfolio you should consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses carefully. Please read the prospectuses carefully before investing.

For more information on IRAs and which might be right for you call Ten Haagen Financial Group for a free consultation. A second opinion can be the best thing you do for yourself this year.

Does the Patch accept articles from district spokespeople? Perhaps that is the answer to thisRead More problem! Short but informative articles can be submitted each week and then Huntington could get the coverage it so desires. Each town's Patch would cover whichever high schools are in it's area. Problem solved!

Pretty disgusted with the Patch. Talk about a slap in the face to all the players, fans and familiesRead More of the Huntington Blue Devils.

Maybe St Anthony's gets more coverage b/c they "advertise" with the Patch?? Sad, but youRead More know how it goes, whoever fills the pocket, gets the attention!!

They do have the metal inside and they are all the same size. If you are seriously interested I willRead More gladly send you some more pictures. As far as the price, the best I can do is a bundle. Maybe 4 for $100 or 2 for $60. They were looked at by a store owner who wanted to purchase and sell in her store for $50 each. They are very cute, very trendy :)

Do they have the metal inside that held the glass bottles? Are they different sizes? It's hard toRead More tell from the pic. I would definitely buy 2 or 3 but, I wouldn't be able to pay 40.00 each. 20-25 each I can do. Thanks, Karen

I have no idea why the Patch isn't covering any of this. Go Huntington!

I would love to become part of the Huntington Chamber of Commerce. However, for a new business itRead More is costly and may not fit into every new business owners budget. May I suggest a provisional 1-year membership at a reduced cost. Once successful the provisional members can give back by supporting other new members.
