403(b) to Gold IRA Rollover
What to verify before moving an eligible 403(b) distribution into an IRA that permits qualifying precious metals.
A 403(b) rollover starts with plan rules and distribution eligibility. If an eligible distribution is available, direct rollover treatment can generally avoid the mandatory withholding that applies when an eligible employer-plan distribution is paid to you.
Do not skip the plan administrator
Ask the plan administrator which portion is eligible for rollover, whether any restrictions apply, and how the direct-rollover paperwork works. Then confirm the receiving IRA can accept the funds.
