Under The Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act of 2005, assets held in IRAs are exempted from bankruptcy up to $1 Million. This limit is adjusted to reflect changes in the consumer price index every three years on April 1. Effective April 1, 2019, the limit is $1,362,800 (increased from $1,245,475).
