An annuity is typically ready for withdrawal without penalties once you've reached the end of its surrender period, which can range from a few years to over a decade, depending on the contract. Additionally, if you wait until you reach the age of 59½, you can generally withdraw funds without incurring early withdrawal penalties. It's essential to review your specific annuity contract for exact terms and conditions. Always consider consulting with a financial advisor for personalized guidance.

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)).

If the annuity is a non qualified tax deferred annuity (an annuity that taxes were paid on the money before they were placed into the annuity) you will pay taxes on any interest growth when it is removed from the annuity. If the annuity is a qualified annuity (no taxes were paid prior to placing the fund into the annuity) you will pay taxes on all withdrawals from the annuity.

Do heirs get the benefit of the annuity if both parties die?

If both parties to an annuity contract die, the benefits to heirs depend on the specific terms of the annuity. Many annuities have a death benefit provision that pays a specified amount to the beneficiaries upon the death of the annuitants. However, if the annuity was set up without a death benefit or if it has been fully paid out, heirs may not receive any benefits. It's essential to review the annuity contract for details on beneficiary provisions and death benefits.
