What is the difference between a tax defered annuity and a income annuity?

Deferred tax means you have invested money into a plan and it is earning some income for you free from income tax until the time that you choose to start taking distributions from the annuity. When you start receiving distributions from the annuity it will become a income annuity to you. Depending on the type of the Annuity the distribution amounts will have have a gross distribution amount and a taxable distribution amount included in each distribution. When you decide you want to start taking distributions from the annuity you will need to be careful because the seller of the annuity will probably have a set number of years before you can start taking your distribution from the plan without paying them a penalty for any early distribution amounts before the number of years end. The IRS could also have a early withdrawal penalty of 10% of the taxable amount of the distribution unless you meet one of the exceptions to 10% early withdrawal penalty amount. You can some information about this by going to the IRS gov web site and using the search box for ANNUITY

If you have an annuity of 10K that pays about 5 percent each year should you use that to pay as much of your tuition bill as you can?

Assuming that the annuity in question is a "deferred" annuity (that is, that it is not already providing regular annuity payments), the answer depends upon whether you're over 59 1/2 or not. If you're not, any distributions from that annuity will be taxable as Ordinary Income AND subject to a 10% penalty tax - 10% of the amount of the distribution (IRC Sect. 72(q)). Not a very attractive result. If you're over 59 1/2 and still attending school, BRAVO! But the distribution from your annuity will still be taxable (but without that 10% penalty tax).

Are there tax consequences when you move money from an annuity to a mutual fund?

AnswerThe answer depends upon whether the annuity was purchased inside an IRA or employer-sponsored ("qualified") plan. If so, then money can be transferred from the annuity to any other investment in that plan (for employer sponsored plans, that means only those investments permitted in that plan; for IRAs, it means any investment you wish to purchase within your IRA) without tax.There may be surrender chargesimposed by the annuity, but the transfer will not be a taxable event.If the annuity was purchased outside such plans (with after-tax dollars), then any distribution from the annuity (including a direct transfer to a mutual fund) will be taxable, to the extent of "gain" (contract value in excess of the amount you invested). In addition, if you're under age 59 1/2, there will be a penalty tax of 10% of the distribution (IRC Sect. 72(q)).
