FAQ

Take an early withdrawal You'll need to speak with someone at your company's human resources department to see if this option is available and how the process works. Generally, you'll need to complete some paperwork, and describe why you need early access to your retirement funds.

Hardship withdrawals are subject to income tax and, if prior to age 59½, a 10% tax penalty.

If you're taking out funds from your retirement account prior to age 59½ and exceptions apply, use IRS Form 5329 to report the amount of 10% additional tax you owe on an early distribution or to claim an exception to the 10% additional tax.

To report the tax on early distributions, you may have to file Form 5329, Additional Taxes on Qualified Plans (Including IRAs) and Other Tax-Favored Accounts PDF. See the Form 5329 instructions PDF for additional information about this tax.

A hardship withdrawal is a distribution from an employee's 403(b) retirement account made because of an immediate and heavy financial need. The distribution is limited to the amount necessary to satisfy that financial need and any applicable taxes and penalties.

Deferring Social Security payments, rolling over old 401(k)s, setting up IRAs to avoid the mandatory 20% federal income tax, and keeping your capital gains taxes low are among the best strategies for reducing taxes on your 401(k) withdrawal.
