Rollover Contributions Generally, a rollover is a movement of cash or assets from one retirement plan to another. If you are required to take minimum distributions because you are age 70½ or older, you may not roll over any required minimum distributions. Both the distribution and the rollover contribution are reportable when you file your income taxes. You must irrevocably elect to treat such contributions as rollovers. IRA-to-IRA Rollover: You may withdraw, tax free, all or a portion of your Traditional IRA if you contribute the amount withdrawn within 60 days from the date you receive the distribution into the same or another Traditional IRA as a rollover. To complete a rollover of a SIMPLE IRA distribution to your Traditional IRA, at least two years must have elapsed from the date on which you first participated in any SIMPLE IRA plan maintained by the employer, and you must contribute the distribution within 60 days from the date you receive it. Only one IRA distribution within any 12-month period may be rolled over in an IRA-to-IRA rollover transaction. The 12-month waiting period begins on the date you receive an IRA distribution that you subsequently roll over, not on the date you complete the rollover transaction. If you roll over the entire amount of an IRA distribution (including any amount withheld for federal, state, or other income taxes that you did not receive), you do not have to report the distribution as taxable income. Any amount not properly rolled over within the 60-day period will generally be taxable in the year distributed (except for any amount that represents basis) and may be, if you are under age 59½, subject to the premature distribution penalty tax. Employer Retirement Plan-to-Traditional IRA Rollover (by Traditional IRA Owner): Eligible rollover distributions from qualifying employer retirement plans may be rolled over, directly or indirectly, to your Traditional IRA. Qualifying employer retirement plans include qualified plans (e.g., 401(k) plans or profit sharing plans), governmental 457(b) plans, 403(b) arrangements and 403(a) arrangements. Amounts that may not be rolled over to your Traditional IRA include any required minimum distributions, hardship distributions, any part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments, or distributions consisting of Xxxx 401(k) or Xxxx 403(b) assets. To complete a direct rollover from an employer plan to your Traditional IRA, you must generally instruct the plan administrator to send the distribution to your Traditional IRA Custodian. To complete an indirect rollover to your Traditional IRA, you must generally request that the plan administrator make a distribution directly to you. You typically have 60 days from the date you receive an eligible rollover distribution to complete an indirect rollover. Any amount not properly rolled over within the 60-day period will generally be taxable in the year distributed (except for any amount that represents after-tax contributions) and may be, if you are under age 59½, subject to the premature distribution penalty tax. If you choose the indirect rollover method, the plan administrator is typically required to withhold 20% of the eligible rollover distribution amount for purposes of federal income tax withholding. You may, however, make up the withheld amount out of pocket and roll over the full amount. If you do not make up the withheld amount out of pocket, the 20% withheld (and not rolled over) will be treated as a distribution, subject to applicable taxes and penalties. Conduit IRA: You may use your IRA as a conduit to temporarily hold amounts you receive in an eligible rollover distribution from an employer’s retirement plan. Should you combine or add other amounts (e.g., regular contributions) to your conduit IRA, you may lose the ability to subsequently roll these funds into another employer plan to take advantage of special tax rules available for certain qualified plan distribution amounts. Consult your tax advisor for additional information. Employer Retirement Plan-to-Traditional IRA Rollover (by Inherited Traditional IRA Owner): Please refer to the section of this document entitled “Inherited IRA”. Traditional IRA-to-Employer Retirement Plan Rollover: If your employer’s retirement plan accepts rollovers from IRAs, you may complete a direct or indirect rollover of your pre-tax assets in your Traditional IRA into your employer retirement plan. If you are required to take minimum distributions because you are age 70½ or older, you may not roll over any required minimum distributions. Rollover of Exxon Xxxxxx Settlement Income: Certain income received as an Exxon Xxxxxx qualified settlement may be rolled over to a Traditional IRA or another eligible retirement plan. The amount contributed cannot exceed the lesser of $100,000 (reduced by the amount of any qualified settlement income contributed to an eligible retirement plan in prior tax years) or the amount of qualified settlement income received during the tax year. Contributions for the year can be made until the due date for filing your return, not including extensions.
Catch-Up Contributions In the case of a Traditional IRA Owner who is age 50 or older by the close of the taxable year, the annual cash contribution limit is increased by $1,000 for any taxable year beginning in 2006 and years thereafter.
