Rollover IRA
|
A Rollover IRA is basically a Traditional
IRA into which you can move money from other retirement plans and
accounts and still maintain tax-deferred growth. You can roll over
amounts distributed from your employer's retirement plan,
from another IRA, a 403(b) account and from certain 457 accounts.
For instance, if you're retiring or changing
jobs, you can transfer your existing retirement savings accounts
into a Rollover IRA, which can simplify managing your funds, possibly
save you money on fees, and keep your funds growing on a tax-deferred
basis.
A great feature of a Rollover IRA
is that there are no taxes or penalties on amounts rolled into it.
So, if you're in the process of receiving a distribution from a
retirement plan and want to avoid the mandatory 20% federal income
tax withholding, simply have the retirement plan directly transfer
your proceeds into a Rollover IRA (retirement plans must withhold
20% unless the distribution is a Direct Rollover).

assets. |
