Yes, if the Roth is being transferred from one firm to another, then it is just a transfer. Simply request an account transfer form from the receiving institution, fill it out, and submit with a copy of a recent statement. If this is happen from Roth IRA to Roth IRA within the same firm, then this is just consider a consolidation. Neither of the above mentioned scenarios would result in any tax consequences/penalties.
One of the primary benefits of using a Roth IRA is that you don't pay income tax when you withdraw funds in retirement.
Unfortunately not everyone meets IRS standards to contribute to a Roth IRA. The primary reason individuals are not allowed to contribute is because their incomes exceed the Roth IRA income limits.
Many individuals that did not qualify for income reasons end up investing in 401k plans and Traditional IRAs. With a Traditional IRA you receive a tax break today, but pay income taxes in retirement. This is opposite of what happens with a Roth IRA. (Compare Roth IRAs and Traditional IRAs.)
The IRS has always allowed certain individuals to convert their Traditional IRAs to Roth IRAs as long as they met specific qualifications and paid income tax on the conversion. But high income earners were unable to convert until recently.
It's generally a good idea for most investors to consider including a Roth IRA in their overall retirement planning. Roth IRAs have the potential to grow tax-free, which may help you save more over time. Plus, withdrawals aren't mandatory during the lifetime of the original owner, and Roth IRA assets may pass to your heirs tax-free.
Whether you just want all your retirement assets in one place or you're not happy with your Simplified Employee Pension individual retirement account, you can move it to your traditional IRA whenever you want. Your employer can't stop you from moving the money. The easiest way to move the money from a SEP IRA to a traditional IRA is with a transfer because you simply submit a transfer request form and the trustee does the rest. It won't even show up on your taxes. However, if you want to do a rollover and have the money paid to you, you have to jump through a few more hoops. For example, if you have a big bill due but your bonus isn't coming for four more weeks, you could use the rollover to pay the bill and then use your bonus to complete the rollover.
It depends on your definition of penalty. When you roll a traditional IRA over to a Roth IRA you pay income tax on the amount you withdraw from your IRA, but you do not pay a withdrawal penalty of 10%.

Not directly but you can roll it over to a Traditional IRA first then convert that IRA to a Roth.
No, a 457 IRA is no the same as a Roth IRA. A 457 IRA is a type of retirement account that holds money pre-tax, so when the money is withdrawn in retirement, it is taxed as income at that time. A Roth IRA is funded with after tax dollars, and taxes are not assessed at the time of withdrawal.
You must have a roth ira open. When you are separated from your employer, or turn 59.5, you can instruct your employer to directly roll your 401k over to the roth ira.
