Where do my contributions go?
To make Roth contributions, you must have a trust and then trust bank account for ONLY Roth contributions. You must not commingle Roth and Traditional dollars.
Functionally, you will open two trusts and two bank accounts connected to those trusts at our partner bank. You must name the accounts appropriately. You will be working with our support team, so please call if you have any questions or concerns.
