  2. We constantly hear about enrolling for 401(k) plans to enjoy the benefits during the retirement period. However, not many are aware of the actual benefits that can be redeemed using your 401(k) savings. Generally, the amount saved through a company’s 401k recordkeeping software can be redeemed on your retirement or it can be left to mature as it gets accumulated over time. One of the top most aspects that determine the maturity of your plan is the age of the withdrawer. If a person retires after the age of 55, the IRS allows the retiree to withdraw savings from 401 (k) without paying an annual penalty of 10% for early withdrawal. If a person retires or loses their job between 55 to 59 years, that person can leverage the Age 55 Rule by withdrawing the entire savings from your 401 (k) account. However, this is applicable only if the person has left a recent organization, where the retiree had an active 401 (k) plan. This system doesn’t work for early employer’s plan and individual retirement account. Another benefit of retiring and withdrawing after 59 years is that the retiree can withdraw without taxation, given that they had already paid taxes on their income. Also, the retiree can choose and spread across their withdrawal by electing regular distribution or lump sum withdrawals. Experts advise that it is best to leave the savings in 401 (k) for a long period to improve the money’s maturity. It is not compulsory for the retiree to withdraw the savings right away. © 2020-2021 All Rights Reserved, No part of this document should be modified / used without prior consent.

  3. In retrospect, allowing the savings to mature can help the retiree in the long run. Further, the retiree can contribute savings to their account even after retirement. This can be done by rolling over to an IRA since 401 (k) does not accommodate contributions after retirement. In the traditional IRA account, the retiree can continue contributing to the account, thereby improving the savings amount. It is possible to contribute income that the retiree earns, except the income from social security and investments. Although 401 (k) plans are beneficial, it is often complex and confusing for the average person to figure out every regulation. To get the best out of your retirement account, leverage the services of agencies that use solid retirement plan administration software.
