Take advantage of your home's value and start saving today! Visit flcu.org/he-loans to get started.

Tax season is here, and smart financial planning can help you maximize savings while reducing your tax burden. Consider these key ways financial planning can benefit you this tax season: • Maximize IRA Contributions – Contributing to a Traditional IRA before the tax deadline may reduce your taxable income. If you haven’t contributed up to the limit, now is the time to do so. • Utilize Tax-Advantaged Accounts – Contributions to Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) and 401(k) plans can provide valuable tax benefits while helping you save for the future. • Plan for Long-Term Tax Efficiency – A financial advisor can help create a tax-efficient investment strategy, ensuring you make the most of deductions and credits year after year. • Consider Roth Conversions – Converting a Traditional IRA to a Roth IRA at the right time could lower future tax liabilities, depending on your financial situation. • Review Charitable Contributions – Donations to qualified charities may be tax-deductible, reducing taxable income while supporting causes you care about. Need guidance this tax season? FCU Financial Advisors Ken Toops and Jerry Johnson are available to assist with your financial planning needs. Visit flcu.org/investment-services/ to learn more.
