A Rollover IRA accepts "qualified plan distributions"
(from a 401(k) plan, for example), and the funds
keep their tax-deferred earnings status. This
is a good option if you expect to receive a qualified
plan distribution due to a job change or retirement.
There is no limit to the amount you can rollover.
With a "direct rollover", you can rollover your
401(k) plan distributions and 403(b) annuity funds without the
otherwise mandatory 20% withholding the IRS requires employers
to assess if funds are distributed directly to an employee in
the employee's name.
Your rollover may create a "conduit" IRA plan, which
will let you move your funds from the rollover IRA back to a
qualified plan such as a 401(k) if your employer's plan allows
this.
You can make rollover deposits to this plan if you are over
age 70 ½; however you may not roll any amounts that represent
a mandatory payment.
If funds are withdrawn prematurely, they may be subject to
income tax, if the owner is under age 59½, and a 10%
premature distribution penalty. CD early withdrawal penalties
may also apply.
