401(k) and Retirement Account Rollovers

Changing jobs or retiring? Start with the questions to review before making decisions about an existing retirement account.

Questions to consider before a rollover

A job change or retirement can raise questions about keeping an existing plan, moving eligible funds to another plan or IRA, or taking a distribution. Available options depend on the accounts and plan rules. Compare fees, services, investment options, withdrawal rules and tax consequences with appropriately qualified professionals before deciding. A rollover is not automatically the best option.

Direct vs. Indirect Rollovers

Eligible distributions may have direct-rollover or other rollover options. If a payment is made to you, deadlines and withholding rules may apply. Treatment depends on the account type and transaction. A Roth conversion can have different tax consequences. Confirm instructions with your plan administrator or custodian and a qualified tax professional.

Read the IRS rollover guidance.

Details to confirm before moving retirement funds

  • Whether the distribution and receiving account are eligible.
  • Applicable deadlines, withholding, fees and withdrawal restrictions.
  • How the decision affects your broader retirement and tax situation.
