Ways to roll over your account

I want to keep my earnings tax deferred

You can lower your tax bill by deducting your contributions. You won't be taxed until you withdraw money in retirement.1

I want earnings to be tax-free

You can access your contributions tax- and penalty-free before retirement. Taking money out in retirement is tax-free.2

I want to convert from tax-deferred to tax-free

You can roll over your traditional 401(k) or 403(b) into a Roth IRA, but this will be considered a Roth conversion which is a taxable event.3

I want to separate my 401(k) or 403(b) from my other assets

An IRA can give you more control of your former employer-sponsored plan's assets. Your money won't be taxed until you withdraw it in retirement.1

Rollover FAQs

What's a rollover?

A rollover is when you move the assets in an employer-sponsored retirement plan, such as a 401(k) or 403(b), into an IRA.

You start by deciding what type of IRA is best for you. You'll then call the financial company that holds your former employer's retirement plan and have your savings moved into a Doinvest IRA.

Rollovers typically take 2–4 weeks to complete. Please contact your plan's provider to better understand time frames.

1We recommend that you consult a tax or financial advisor about your individual situation. When taking withdrawals from an IRA before age 59½, you may have to pay ordinary income tax plus a 10% federal penalty tax.




2You'll never pay taxes on withdrawals of your contributions. And you won't pay taxes on withdrawals of your earnings as long as you take them after you've reached age 59½ and owned the account for at least 5 years. The 5-year holding period for Roth IRAs starts on the earlier of: (1) the date you first contributed directly to the IRA, (2) the date you rolled over a Roth 401(k) or Roth 403(b) to the Roth IRA, or (3) the date you converted a traditional IRA to the Roth IRA. If you're under age 59½ and you have one Roth IRA that holds proceeds from multiple conversions, you're required to keep track of the 5-year holding period for each conversion separately.




3The amount you convert to a Roth IRA isn't subject to the 10% penalty that's charged on traditional IRA withdrawals taken before you reach age 59½. You may wish to consult a tax advisor about your situation.




4For the 10-year period ended June 30, 2024, 6 of 6 Doinvest money market funds, 83 of 98 Doinvest bond funds, 21 of 23 Doinvest balanced funds, and 161 of 189 Doinvest stock funds—for a total of 271 of 316 Doinvest funds—outperformed their Lipper peer-group averages.
