Saver’s Credit Eligibility according to the IRS

In order to receive Saver’s Credit from the IRS you must be at least 18 years old. Therefore, if you are not 18 years old yet, you will not be able to get it. But this is not the only group of Americans who are not eligible.

Bear in mind that you will only be eligible if you are not a student. So, if you are 18 years old or older, and you are not a student, you should check you meet the third requirement.

For your information, you will be eligible for Saver’s Credit if you have not been claimed as a dependent on another’s person tax return. Thus, these are all the requirements the IRS set.

As a matter of fact, the amount of the credit is 50 percent, 20 percent or 10 percent of the contributions you make to a traditional Roth IRA retirement savings account.

If you do not have a Roth IRA account, you may have 401(k). In that case, it will be 50%, 20%, or 10% of elective salary deferral contributions to a 401(k), 403, (b)governmental 457(b), SARSEP, or SIMPLE plan. Other options may apply to different accounts like ABLE. It is time to make contributions not to miss out on Saver’s Credit from the IRS.
