Recently, I have been working with a USPFA member discussing and evaluating one of these transition times for many of us in regard to our retirement planning. The top of mind topic for these members was the In-Service Rollover (or ISR). Many people are not aware that once you reach the age of 59 ½, you have the ability to transfer a portion of your retirement plan assets (401k, 403b or similar retirement plan vehicle) into a self-directed IRA.

Each retirement plan has specific rules and processes but typically, this transfer can be up to 80% of your 401k balance.
