Tax-Advantaged Products Help Manage Taxes during Retirement

Non-qualified, tax-advantaged monies can be classified into two categories: tax-deferred, taxable and tax-deferred and tax-free. Tax-Deferred Annuities and Modified Endowment Life Insurance Contracts (MEC) accumulate without taxation on the gain. When distributions are generated, all gains are taxed as ordinary income and are includable in the Social Security provisional income test that can trigger taxes on your benefits. But the tax deferral can come in handy when you have other income sources generating revenue and you can delay the annuity or MEC income for another time. Managing taxes during retirement can increase your net-spendable income, so you can keep more of your money.

Non-Modified Endowment Life Insurance Contracts¹, Reverse Mortgages and Roth IRAs accumulate tax deferred and generate tax-free distributions. But a huge advantage is they are not considered reportable income for the Social Security provisional income test that can trigger taxes on your benefits. So it is conceivable with enough tax deductions, exemptions and tax credits, your Social Security benefits could potentially be tax-free as well as these other tax-free items.
