Q: When Can I Initiate A 401K Rollover?”

A: You can initiate a 401K Rollover in three situations.

• When you reach 59½ years old.

• When you retire.
• After you have left your employment where you have a 401K.

After leaving an employer most people prefer to have control of their investments by taking their old 401K and rolling it over to a Gold IRA. It can be initiated as soon as you leave the employer or at any time after. This must be a direct transfer from custodian to custodian so the distribution check must be made out to the new custodian or trustee for your IRA account.
