Enhance Your Retirement Strategy with an In-Service Rollover to an IRA

If you are 59 ½ or older and still working, you may have the option to complete an In-Service Rollover to an IRA. This allows you to transfer eligible funds from your 401(k) or 403(b) into a self-directed IRA—without changing jobs.

Potential Benefits of an In-Service Rollover:

  • Retirement Income Planning – Learn how an IRA may help structure your retirement income and provide options for a surviving spouse.

  • Expanded Investment Options – Unlike employer-sponsored plans, IRAs offer access to a broader range of investment choices.

  • Fee Transparency & Greater Control – Some company plans have administrative costs or restrictions. An IRA allows for greater flexibility and fee transparency.

  • Risk Management Strategies – As retirement approaches, managing market risk is important. An IRA may offer investment options designed to align with your risk tolerance.

  • Tax-Advantaged Growth & Legacy Planning – IRAs can provide tax-deferred growth and may offer estate planning benefits.

An In-Service Rollover does not affect your ability to continue contributing to your 401(k), 403(b) or receiving employer-matching contributions. It is simply an option to explore additional diversification and flexibility in managing your retirement assets.


To better understand how an In-Service Rollover might fit into your retirement strategy, we can prepare a personalized “Future Income Report”. This report projects potential retirement income based on available rollover amounts, helping you make informed decisions.
