Rollover FAQs

What is a Rollover?

A Rollover is a movement of funds from an Employer-Sponsored Retirement Plan (401(k), Roth 401(k), 403(b), 457(b), etc.) to an Individual Retirement Account or "IRA". There may be restrictions when an Employer-Sponsored Plan can be rolled over. It may vary depending on the plan, but generally, one must reach the age of 59 1/2 or no longer be employed by one's previous employer. Please speak with a plan administrator about how to proceed.

Can I rollover a pre-taxed Employer-Sponsored Retirement Plan into a Roth IRA?

What is a 60-day Rollover?

A 60-day Rollover is when a distribution is paid directly to you from your Employer-Sponsored Retirement Plan. You are required to move those funds into an IRA within 60 days, or you may receive a tax* penalty. You can request an extension or even waive your 60-day Rollover.
