What people ask us most

Can I open an IRA with an ITIN, without a Social Security number?
In many cases, depending on the institution, it is possible to open an IRA with an ITIN if you have income reported to the IRS. Requirements may vary.
Tax rules may vary based on your situation. Consult the IRS website or a tax professional.
Can I have an IRA and a 401(k) at the same time?
Yes, in many cases you can have both accounts. Having a 401(k) may affect the deductibility of a Traditional IRA depending on your income.
Consult a tax professional for your specific situation.
How much can I contribute to my IRA in 2026?
The contribution limit for 2026 is $7,500 per year, or $8,500 if you're 50 or older (catch-up). For a Roth IRA, your eligibility depends on your income: approximately $165,000 if you're single or $246,000 if you're married.
Limits and requirements may vary. Consult the IRS website.
What happens if I need to withdraw money before age 59½?
Generally, withdrawing before age 59½ may result in a 10% penalty plus taxes on the amount withdrawn. With a Roth IRA, in many cases you can withdraw your original contributions without penalty. Limited exceptions exist.
Rules may vary based on your situation. Consult the IRS website before making this decision.
Roth or Traditional, which one is better for me?
It mainly depends on whether you expect to be in a higher tax bracket today or in the future. Emma can guide you, and a tax professional can help with your specific case.
