Some basic questions

[Guest newhand]

Hi everyone,

I'm a foreigner and in the immigration process. I'm currently holding a H-1 work Visa and working in GA. I'm paying federal and state taxes as a US resident. Since I'm in this unstable situation, I have some unique questions:

1. Am I qualified for Roth IRA investment (assume my income is not a issue)?

2. May I withdraw early from Roth besides buying first home? For example, moving out of US or some other emergency needs? It seems the answer is NO. But since the contribution is after tax money, can I take out some of it and keep the capital gain in my account to avoid penalty?

3. May I withdraw it from outside of US after I reach age 59.5?

Thanks a lot,

Newhand
