You can rollover your 401k at any time, as long as it has been 60 days since it was opened. The company holding your 401k benefits has its own rules.

My 401k administrator is saying I am not eligible for a 401K rollover of any kind because I am not leaving the company. Can a 401k be rolled over into an IRA or a roth IRA without a job change?

As a general rule of thumb, you cannot rollover your 401k to another account while you are still with the company. You could cash the 401k account out, but in doing so you could be facing taxes and penalties of over 40%. For more information on 401k rollovers, please visit eRollover.com at the links below.


How do you cash in 401k?

If you are still employed by the company that sponsors your 401k plan then you will not be eligible to cash out of the plan. Instead, you can see if your plan offers either a 401k plan loan, or a 401k plan hardship withdrawal (not all 401k plans allow hardship withdrawals so you need to ask your plan administrator if your plan has this feature.)If you are no longer employed by the company that sponsors your 401k plan, then you are eligible to get your money out of your 401k plan. You can cash out of the plan, or rollover your 401k plan balance to an IRA. If you choose to rollover your 401k plan instead of cashing out, then you will not have to pay taxes or penalty taxes: rollovers to IRAs are not taxable transactions if you do them the right way.


Rollovers to a 401k plan from a flexible variable annuity?

The only accounts that can be rolled into a 401k plan are other old 401k plans. You can not co-mingle the accounts. Once you rollover a 401k to an IRA or Annuity, you forfeit the right to put the money back into another 401k plan. However, there is really no benefit to putting the money back into a 401k plan in the first place. The money you roll in isn't matched, and your investment choices are typically somewhat limited with an employer plan.

Can you cash and keep an fbo check for a 401k rollover?

You can, but you had better beware of the consequences. When you take money out of your 401k plan before the age of 59 1/2, you have to pay ordinary income tax on the amount plus a 10% penalty. As a result, you could end up paying more than 40% of the total amount of the check in taxes. For more advice on 401k rollovers, please visit eRollover.com at the link below.
