401K Investment Options..help !


Recommended Posts

10% penalty is on top of your usual tax liability. Say you make 100k. If you withdraw 10k from 401f, then your income is considered to be 110k. Your tax will be calculated for 110K. On top of that you will pay 10% penalty for the the 10K you withdraw from your 401K acct.

One work around for that is when you move back to India, just withdraw money so that you will fall under the no-tax bracket(less than minimum wage). In that case your tax liability is 0% + 10 % penalty.


Good job

You can take a loan out of your 401K if you are buying a house. Loan amount cannot exceed 50% of your 401K balance upto 50K USD.

 

So 401K balance $75K unte, you can take a loan of upto $35,000 only. You will be paying interest for that loan, but that interest will be added to you 401K balance along with the monthly installment. Essentially, you are taking a loan from your own account, repaying yourself with via installment/interest.
