Guest PeteC Posted November 25, 2008 Posted November 25, 2008 I have a 401K that I plan to rollover to an IRA. The statement lists the funds in the 401k in various categories. I have talked to the plan administrators a number of times and can't get a good handle on what the categories mean. They are as follows, using, as an example, $1000 for the total plan balance (A) Nontaxable Contributions Post-1986 = $19 (Pre-1987 not listed, assume=0) (B) Before Tax Contributions & Earnings = $718 © After Tax Contributions & Earnings = $60 (D) Company Contributions & Earnings, Non-contributory = $6 (E) Company Contributions & Earnings, Company Match Pre 2007 = $215 What happens when I rollover to an IRA? I have been told that: $981 (=$1000-$19) would roll over and I will receive a check for $19. (1) If I roll to a traditional, I assume I would file a form 8606. Would the nondeductible amount be C or C-A or $0? Can item A be rolled over to a Roth IRA? Can part or all of item C be rolled over to a Roth IRA? I have a Roth already, can I put any Roth rollovers into it or is there an advantage to not commingle? Are there better options or am I completely bonkers on all this? TIA Pete
