什么是IRA转账?
It's a lot easier to invest with confidence when you have the freedom to move your money around 退休帐户s.
随着时间的推移, you might find the Individual 退休 Account (IRA) investment choices that made sense when you opened the account aren't working as well for you now. An IRA 转移 is simply the process of moving funds between IRAs.
为什么要转移IRA ??
You may want to move to a different type of investment, choose an investment that better fits your current needs and circumstances, or move your account to another fund or financial institution to keep your retirement and financial assets in one place.
A 转移 is not considered to be a withdrawal for tax purposes, so t在这里 will be no reporting to the IRS and no taxes withheld. 一般, a 转移 applies to IRAs of the same type: moving funds from an existing Roth IRA to another Roth IRA, or an existing Traditional IRA to another Traditional IRA. 你也可以从 SEP IRA to a Traditional IRA or a SIMPLE IRA to a Traditional IRA, as long as you have had the SIMPLE IRA for at least two years.
