Make the most of your retirement savings by contributing the maximum yearly limit to your IRAs. For the 2020 and 2021 tax years, you can contribute a total of $6,000 to Traditional or Roth IRAs. If you are over age 50, you can contribute an additional $1,000 “catch-up” contribution.

Please submit your IRA contribution in advance of the tax filing deadline to allow plenty of time to complete the necessary paperwork. IRA contributions for 2020 can be made until the tax filing deadline in April 2021. Please consult your tax advisor or financial advisor with questions about your individual tax circumstances.

If you don’t have an IRA, get started today. RGCU offers traditional or Roth IRAs, Education Savings Accounts, and IRA Certificates. Learn more here.

No one likes standing in line just waiting to deposit a check. Avoid the hassle and have your check automatically deposited into your account. Direct deposit is a free electronic transfer service you can use to send your paychecks directly to your RGCU checking or savings account. 

Direct Deposit Benefits

• It's convenient. Eliminates the need to deposit checks in person.
• It's safer. Reduces risk of lost or stolen checks.
• It's faster. Get direct access to your money on payday.
• It's flexible. You can divide your funds across multiple accounts.

How to Set up Direct Deposit

You'll need to ask your employer for their direct deposit form and include the following:

• RGCU's ABA/routing number: 307083678
• Your 10-digit checking or savings account number. It can be found in the Account Summary tab of Online Banking, on your statement, and at the bottom of each check. Your checking account number will be different from your savings number.

Note:

You may be asked to include a voided check. If this is the case, simply write VOID across the front of check and attach to any direct deposit paperwork. If you don't have checks, we'd be happy to draft you a direct deposit letter you can give to your employer. If you get federal benefits, you can find a federal direct deposit form on the US General Services Administration website.

Whether you are preparing your tax returns yourself or going to a tax professional, it will save time and aggravation if you have certain information gathered before you start. Use this handy checklist to help you put together the right information.
