Federal employees don\u2019t have 401(k) accounts, but instead have the Thrift Savings Plan (TSP), a defined contribution program that\u2019s similar in many ways to a 401(k).<\/p>\n<p>TSP has many advantages, among them the G Fund, which is guaranteed never to lose money, as well as the ultra-low management fees the TSP funds charge. But like many defined contribution plans, TSP\u2019s investment options are limited. Many current and former federal employees often wish that they had more flexibility in their investment options and could put their TSP funds to better use. That\u2019s where a TSP rollover can come into play.<\/p>\n<p>Rolling over funds from a TSP into an IRA can offer you a wider range of investment options. Whether you\u2019re opening a rollover IRA at a brokerage firm or opening a <a href=\"https:\/\/goldco.com\/gold-ira\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">self-directed gold IRA<\/a> to buy precious metals, the rollover process is largely the same. In either case, rolling over funds to an IRA can open up your investment possibilities.<\/p>\n<p>Here are the three easy steps to rolling over your TSP into an IRA.<\/p>\n<h2>1. Open an IRA<\/h2>\n<p>The first step in your TSP to IRA rollover is to open up an IRA account. This means finding an IRA custodian who will manage your account.<\/p>\n<p>For the purposes of this guide, we\u2019ll assume that you\u2019re going to roll over either all or part of your TSP account into an IRA. We\u2019ll also assume that you want to do a direct rollover from your TSP account to an IRA account. This way you can make that rollover tax-free.<\/p>\n<p>If you were to make an indirect rollover, in which the money is sent to you first, you would have 20% taken out of your rollover to pay taxes and you would have to make that money up when you deposit it into your new IRA account. Indirect rollovers add an extra layer of complexity and expose you to potential tax consequences which in most cases you\u2019re not going to want.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re opening an account with a brokerage firm, the brokerage will normally be your custodian. If you\u2019re starting a self-directed gold IRA or <a href=\"https:\/\/goldco.com\/precious-metals-ira\/silver-ira\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">silver IRA<\/a> to purchase precious metals, you\u2019ll need to find a custodian that manages precious metals IRA assets. Goldco works with experienced IRA custodians who have helped numerous customers manage their gold and silver IRAs.<\/p>\n<p>Once you\u2019ve opened the IRA account that will be the destination for your TSP funds, you\u2019ll need to add that account information to your TSP account. When you log in to your TSP account, you\u2019ll click on the profile icon at the top right of your browser window (it looks like a little person inside a circle).<\/p>\n<p>Underneath \u201cMy Profile\u201d you\u2019ll see an option for \u201cFinancial Institutions\u201d which you\u2019ll click on. From there you\u2019ll be prompted to add the name of your financial institution (i.e. your IRA custodian), the type of rollover you want (in most cases this will be to a Traditional IRA), the IRA account number, and the address to where TSP should send funds. This may not be the same as the standard mailing address for your IRA custodian, so you\u2019ll want to clarify with your custodian where funds should be sent.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s important to note that this account information must be on file with TSP for at least seven days before you begin your TSP rollover. Make sure that you get this information correct, as changing information or adding a new account will reset that seven day clock. Once you\u2019ve inputted your IRA account information, set a reminder so that you can come back in seven days to start your rollover.<\/p>\n<h2>2. Determine How Much Money to Roll Over<\/h2>\n<p>While you\u2019re waiting, you can determine how much of your TSP you want to roll over into an IRA. This might vary depending on whether you\u2019re still working for the government or if you\u2019re retired or otherwise separated from government service.<\/p>\n<p>Some people want to get out of the TSP entirely and roll over all of their funds into an IRA. Others may only want to do a partial rollover. And some others may want to roll over most but not all of their TSP funds.<\/p>\n<p>Why might you not want to roll over all of your TSP funds? Well, there\u2019s the safety net of having the G Fund available, as well as the low fund costs of the TSP\u2019s other funds. Maybe you\u2019ll find that your IRA fund fees are higher than you expected, or that the performance of your IRA investments hasn\u2019t matched that of the TSP\u2019s funds. In that case you might kick yourself if you\u2019ve transferred all your funds, especially if you\u2019ve left government service.<\/p>\n<p>Once you\u2019ve separated from the government, you can keep your TSP account open as long as it has a minimum balance of $200. And <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tsp.gov\/tsp-basics\/move-money-into-tsp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">TSP accepts inbound rollovers<\/a> from IRA or 401(k) accounts at any time, although there are some exceptions when it comes to Roth accounts. Familiarize yourself with those options, as maintaining your TSP account might be worth it just to have another backup for your investments.<\/p>\n<h2>3. Execute Your TSP to IRA Rollover<\/h2>\n<p>Okay, you\u2019ve waited seven days to start your TSP rollover and you\u2019ve determined how much money you want to roll over. Now\u2019s the time to start your rollover.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll log into your TSP account and navigate to \u201cWithdrawals and Rollovers Out\u201d. You\u2019ll have a choice between making a partial distribution from your TSP (minimum of $1,000 distribution) or a total distribution from your account. Let\u2019s assume for the sake of this example that you\u2019re making a total distribution, i.e. moving all of your funds out of your TSP.<\/p>\n<p>When you click on total distribution you\u2019ll move to Step 1 and will be asked how you want to receive your withdrawal. You can roll over funds to an IRA or an employer\u2019s 401(k), you can have a partial rollover with an amount paid to you, or you can have the full amount paid to you.<\/p>\n<p>If you choose the rollover option, you\u2019ll be prompted to select IRA, Roth IRA, or Employer Plan. If you choose the partial rollover option, you\u2019ll be asked the same thing. If you choose to have the full amount paid to you, you\u2019ll be warned that you may have to pay taxes and a 10% penalty. For the sake of this guide, we\u2019ll assume that you\u2019re rolling over the full amount to an IRA.<\/p>\n<p>Once you\u2019ve chosen to roll over funds to an IRA, you\u2019ll make your rollover choices in Step 2. You\u2019ll be shown your requested withdrawal amount, which in this case is the entirety of your TSP. Then you\u2019ll select the amount you want to roll over.<\/p>\n<p>You can select \u201cAll of the Cash Available\u201d, \u201cSpecific Amount\u201d, or \u201cNo Cash\u201d. If you select either of the latter two options, you\u2019ll be hit with 20% withholding and may have to pay taxes or penalties. If you\u2019re looking to roll over to an IRA, you\u2019ll want to choose \u201cAll of the Cash Available\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Then you\u2019ll be shown your total payment in Step 3. The \u201cGross Cash Payment\u201d is the amount you\u2019re withdrawing from your TSP. If you are rolling over everything to an IRA, the \u201cGross Cash Payment\u201d and \u201cRollover\u201d sums should be identical, and the amount shown under \u201cFederal Withholding\u201d should be zero. If the \u201cFederal Withholding\u201d sum is not zero, back up because you\u2019ve made a mistake.<\/p>\n<p>Step 4 is to read about the rights associated with your rollover payment. Once you click that you\u2019ve received and reviewed the information, you move to Step 5.<\/p>\n<p>At Step 5 you choose the destination for your rollover. You should see your IRA custodian listed here and you will select that option. You\u2019ll also see a notice that your institution should receive a paper check 5-7 business days after the payment has been processed.<\/p>\n<p>From there you\u2019ll move on to review everything in Step 6, and complete the rollover in Step 7. The steps for partial distributions, in which you only withdraw a portion of your funds, is largely similar. But again, if your intent is to roll over your TSP funds directly to an IRA, the most important thing to remember is that the \u201cFederal Withholding\u201d sum in Step 3 is zero. That ensures that the entirety of your rollover is being deposited into your IRA.<\/p>\n<p>So now you\u2019ve completed your TSP rollover and everything is good to go, right? Well, not exactly.<\/p>\n<p>If your spouse is on file with TSP, your spouse will have to approve the rollover too. Your spouse will receive an email prompting them to e-sign their acceptance of the rollover.<\/p>\n<h2>TSP Rollover Timeline<\/h2>\n<p>We\u2019ve already established that you have to have your IRA account information on file with TSP for at least seven days. If you initiate your rollover after 12PM ET, it will be processed the next business day. And it can\u2019t go through until your spouse signs off.<\/p>\n<p>Once your spouse signs off, expect it to take about 2-3 business days for funds to be paid out. And from there it could take 3-7 business days before your IRA custodian receives the funds. If your custodian offers online access to your account, keep checking to see if the funds have made it. And if you don\u2019t have online access to your IRA account, call your custodian after a week to see if they\u2019ve received the funds. All in all, expect the entire process to take about two weeks.<\/p>\n<p>Most TSP to IRA rollovers go off without a hitch. The process can be a little unnerving, especially if you\u2019re rolling over a large sum of money, but the choices that you can unlock after doing a rollover can make the process worth it.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re looking to roll over TSP assets so that you can invest in a gold IRA, Goldco\u2019s IRA specialists can help answer any questions you may have.
