If the CD is not in an IRA account, you cannot put it into an IRA account. Only cash (including checks, money orders, and electronic funds transfers) can be contributed to an IRA. If you are eligible to put money into an IRA, you will have to wait until the CD matures and cash it out or cash it out early and pay a penalty. Then you can use the cash to make a contribution to an IRA subject to the usual annual limits on contributions.

What is the difference between an IRA and an IRA Certificate?
An IRA (Individual Retirement Account) can be thought of as an individual savings account that has tax benefits. You open an IRA for yourself (that's why it's called an individual retirement account) and if you have a spouse, you'll each have a separate account. An important distinction to make is that an IRA is not an investment itself; rather, it is an account where you keep investments such as stocks, bonds and mutual funds. You get to choose the investments in the account, and can change the investments if you wish. Your return depends on the performance of the investments held in the IRA account. An IRA continues to accumulate contributions and interest until you reach retirement age, meaning you could have an IRA for decades before making any withdrawals.IRAs are defined and regulated by the IRS, which sets eligibility requirements, limits on how and when you can make contributions, takes distributions, and determines the tax treatment for the various types of IRA accounts.
Choosing an Investment Retirement Account?
When it comes to choosing investment retirement account, you definitely have a lot of options to consider. As a retirement saver, you have to look at several different factors when making your decision. Things like the annual contribution limit, the tax status and the investment options that you have are a few factors that should be evaluated.Types of AccountsOne of the most popular types of investment retirement account is the 401(k). The 401(k) is typically made available through an employer. With this type of account, you can contribute money on a pre-tax basis and your employer also gets the option to contribute money to your account. Another popular type of retirement account is the individual retirement account or IRA. With an IRA, you set it up on your own through an investment broker. The Roth IRA is a similar type of account that is set up on your own. With the Roth IRA, you fund your account with after-tax money and then don't pay taxes on the money during retirement. With the regular IRA, you use the opposite approach and fund your account with pre-tax money.Contribution LimitsWhen choosing an investment account to work with, you have to look at the contribution limits of each one. The 401(k) has the largest contribution limits of any retirement account. As of 2012, the annual limit for this type of account is $17,000. With the IRA or Roth IRA, you can contribute a maximum of $5,000 per year. When you factor in the employer contributions to your 401(k), you can see that it has the most potential for annual savings.Investment OptionsAlthough the 401(k) typically allows you to save the most money for your retirement, it also usually has the fewest investment options. With a 401(k), you can usually choose between a few different mutual funds and stocks that are offered by your 401(k) provider. With an IRA or Roth IRA, you can usually choose between stocks, bonds, ETF's, mutual funds, options and other securities. If you like investment flexibility, the IRA is usually the way to go.
