401k withdrawal for a foreign resident Dear George,
To answer your question, yes a foreign subject working in the US making a 401k contribution is entiled to make a withdrawal at the retirement age.
The remittance overseas is perfectly legal subject to the the applicable taxes depending on when a distribution is made.
Remember, this withdrawal would be subject to applicable US tax at the time of withdrawal.
A premature distribution would be subject to a 10% penalty when distribution starts prior to AGE 59 1/2. |
