Weather Conditions…
February 22nd, 2015
Due to icy weather conditions, we have limited staff at the contact center. Texas Trust apologizes for any increases in phone hold times that this may cause. Our branches however, are open for business.
Conditions should be improving tomorrow, and we expect any service impact to diminish.
As always, we appreciate your business and the opportunity to serve you.

IRA – There’s a Better Way
February 16th, 2015
There’s a Better Way to Safeguard Your Money
Investing for retirement doesn’t have to be overly risky. One way to make it safer is to set aside money each year in an IRA. Over time, the tax advantages offered by an IRA can help you accumulate more money for your golden years.
Just do it—contribute!
- If you’re under age 50, the maximum IRA contribution amount for the 2014 tax year is $5,500. You can save even more if you’re age 50 or older by making “catch-up” contributions—up to $6,500 for the 2014 tax year. The limits apply to the combined contributions you make to all the IRAs you hold, whether Traditional or Roth.
- If you’re married, your spouse can also make an IRA contribution even if he or she doesn’t have earned income. (At least one of you does need to have earned income.)
Know the difference between Roth and traditional IRAs
- With a traditional IRA, your contributions may be tax-deductible if you are eligible. Your earnings can then grow tax-deferred until you begin making withdrawals, at which point you’d be taxed at whatever rate you’re subject to at the time.
- With a Roth IRA, you’re contributing after-tax money. You don’t get an immediate tax deduction, but your earnings grow tax-free, assuming they meet certain requirements.
