Best Answer

If you are under 59 1/2, 10% will be withheld.

Even in cases of hardship, this money is best left where it is for retirement, particularly if you are young. It should be the last resort. If you leave it as it is, it will grow as the economy improves. Based on stocks, you would be taking a beating from selling at a low point plus the cost of the penalty.

How can you qualify for tax free 401k withdrawal?

You will never be able to withdraw the deferred compensation amounts from the 401K with out having to pay the federal and state income taxes that will be due when you take any distribution amounts from your 401K plan.


How much can you take out of a 401k?

You may take the entire vested amount less taxes and penalties. On a loan against the 401k the rule is you may borrow 1/2 of your vested amount, but if you lose or change jobs that balance becomes due immediately and if you don`t pay it they will use the remaining 1/2 to pay the balance owed. Then you have nothing but now owe taxes and penalties on the whole vested amount because the account is closed.


When are taxes taken when you have money taken out for a 401-k deduction?

Taxes are imposed when you file your income tax return at the end of the year. Often, people think they have paid taxes on their 401K when they withdraw money from the plan. What happens is that the company handling the 401K plan will usually withhold federal income tax when you make a withdrawal. The taxes withheld is just like when taxes are withheld from your paycheck, in that this is merely a time that you make a preliminary payment toward your potential tax bill. When you file your return is when your actual taxes due are determined and based on the tax amount due, you may owe more or you may receive a refund of the amount you had withheld. You must be careful in that there are penalties for not paying close to the amount due during the year when the income is received.
