How to Roll Over Your Employer Retirement Plan
There are two types of rollovers: direct and indirect.
A direct rollover is paid from your plan directly to your IRA or to your new employer’s retirement plan. The funds are never payable to you.
An indirect (60-day) rollover is a payment made to you that you later roll over to an IRA or an employer retirement plan.
When you request a distribution from your employer’s 401(k), 403(b), or governmental 457(b) plan that’s eligible for rollover, you’ll receive a statement describing the tax rules applicable to your distribution and your rollover options. You should read that statement carefully.
