Of course you can. You just lose all the tax benefits.
can you close out your 401k and still receive unemployment benefits
The difference between a Roth 401k and a regular 401k is that the Roth 401K is a after-tax contribution and the regular 401K is a pre-tax contribution. You pay taxes on the Roth 401K now in order to avoid taxes at withdrawal. The regular 401 is a tax credit for the year deposited with taxes paid at the time of withdrawal.
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.
Not sure what you are asking, but generally you cannot simply convert your 401k to a Roth 401k, unless this is something your current company offers. If it is offered, then you would have to pay taxes on the amount that you rolled into a roth 401k, but would never pay any other tax on the gains or distributions.
no >>>>> And why would you want to? You already paid taxes on that money.
No. You won't be able to use it for bills without having to pay 20% in taxes. Usually the 20% in taxes is taken out before you get your money. For example if you are to get $100k from your ex's 401k you will only receive $80k. The only way to keep from having to pay taxes on it is to roll it over into an approved retirement fund.
No, this is the offset of not having to pay taxes on 401K profits. Save

did you cash in the 401k? taxes would already be taken out if so. but you do have to do it again when tax season comes about. they won't make you pay more but you have to show it
Yes, you will pay taxes on withdrawals from your 401(k) after age 62. The withdrawals are considered ordinary income and will be subject to income tax.
In a 401k roth plan a person can decide to contribute before or after taxes, which is not available in a regular 401k. This can be very beneficial to some people.
Generally, your contributions aren't taxed (put in before taxes), and your withdrawals are taxed.
31% for taxes and 2% for your pension/401k
Hello. As long as the funds are still held within the 401k, you are not required to report any taxes on it. Thanks.
Yes. But it is much better and no taxes will be withheld if you have the trustee do a direct transfer from the 401K trustee to the IRA trustee and you do not receive any of the funds in your hand.
when you withdraw the money, yes.
