Consumer Loans
Real Estate Loans

Insured Savings and Certificates

H & E Telephone FCU is federally regulated by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA), an agency of the federal government. The National Credit Unio Share Insurance Fund (NCUSIF), which is managed by NCUA, backs the savings of credit union members up to $250,000 per account. Members have peace of mind knowing that their money is backed by the full faith and credit of the US Government.

The NCUSIF is widely recognized as the best managed of all federal deposit insurance funds, better than the programs that insure banks or savings and loans.

H & E requires a $25 minimum to maintain a savings account. Interest is paid on all balances above $50. H & E attempts to pay rates above average rates at banks, and rates are examined and may be changed quarterly. Interest is compounded daily and credited quarterly to accounts on January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1.

Share Certificate Accounts are issued in a minimum of $1000. H & E offers 6 month and 12 month Share Certificates with interest compounding daily and posting quarterly. Our 2 year and 3 year Share Certificates pay simple interest posted at maturity.

IRA Accounts

Planning for retirement is very important. An individual retirement account could give you peace of mind as well as an excellent tax-deferred return on investment. All or part of your deposits may be tax deductible. Rollovers are accepted from qualified plans. If you have IRA accounts at various financial institutions, you can combine them into one higher paying investment at H&E for easier management. We also accept qualifying retirement payouts on a permanent or temporary basis.

H&E IRAs do not have time limitations; they are run as “super” savings accounts and always pay the highest rate of interest of any H&E accounts. This means you receive our best interest rate, yet maintain the ability to take withdrawals or roll over monies whenever it makes sense for your finances (subject to federal regulations).

H&E currently offers Traditional IRAs, Roth IRAs, and Coverdell Education Savings Account IRAs.

Traditional IRA
You must have earned income to make contributions to a Traditional or Roth IRA. Traditional IRA contributions are fully tax deductible if you are not an active participant in an employer retirement plan. Otherwise, phase out rules apply. Investments grow on a tax-deferred basis. Earnings are taxed on withdrawal.

The contribution limit is adjusted annually for inflation in $500 increments. The annual limits apply to Traditional and Roth IRA's. The current annual limit is $7000.00 if you are under 50. If you are over 50, you may contribute $8000.

Traditional IRAs may be funded until you reach the age of 73, after which you must begin withdrawals. Required minimum distributions are based on life expectancy and the balance of the IRA on Dec. 31 of the prior year. You may withdraw from the IRA without penalty after you reach the age of 59 ½ . Distributions prior to that age are subject to a 10% early withdrawal penalty by the IRS with certain exceptions.

Roth IRA
As long as you have earned income, you can establish and contribute to a Roth IRA, even after age 73. While contributions are not tax deductible, contributions and earnings can be withdrawn tax free, and unlike tradition IRAs, you are not required to begin taking required minimum distributions after reaching age 73. You can convert your Traditional IRA to a Roth IRA to enjoy later tax free withdrawals, but the amount you convert is subject to income tax now. Also, individuals with incomes above $161,000.00 and couples with incomes over $240,000.00 have contributions gradually phased out.
Coverdell Education Savings Accounts
ESAs allow you to put money away for higher education expenses. While there is no tax deduction for amounts contributed to an ESA, earnings grow tax free. Contribution amounts are phased out for individuals earning over $110,000 and couples earning over $220,000. No contributions are allowed to the account after the beneficiary reaches the age of 18.
Catch-Up Contributions
Individuals who have reached age 50 by the end of the year can make additional "catch-up" contributions of $1000 per year. For further information, brochures or rates please call the office at 201-845-6876.
