☐ | Roth IRA Distributions: You are over 591⁄2 and this Distribution satisfies the 5-year holding period requirement. (If “No”, then please check the applicable box below. These distributions will be considered premature if they are not due to disability.) |

3b. Return of Excess Contribution(s)
Amount of Excess: $ | Tax year in which the excess contribution was made: | |
Date deposited: Date (mm/dd/yyyy) | Multiple deposits between: and Date (mm/dd/yyyy) Date (mm/dd/yyyy) |
Earnings will be removed with the excess contribution if corrected before your federal income tax-return due date (including extensions), pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 408(d)(4) and Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Publication 590. You may be subject to an IRS penalty of 6% for each year the excess remains in the account. In addition, the IRS may impose a 10% early distribution penalty on the earnings, if you are under age 591⁄2. |
You will receive IRS Form 1099-R for the year in which the excess distribution takes place (not for the year in which the excess contribution was made). Consult IRS Publication 590 for more information pertaining to excess contributions. If you are subject to a federal penalty tax due to an excess contribution, you must file IRS Form 5329. |
For the purpose of the excess contribution, we will calculate the net income attributable (“NIA”) to the contribution using the method provided in the IRS Final Regulations for Earnings Calculation for Returned or Re-characterized Contributions. This method calculates the NIA based on the actual earnings and losses of the IRA during the time it held the excess contribution. Please note that a negative NIA is permitted and, if applicable, will be deducted from the amount of the excess contribution. |
Re-designating an excess contribution to a later tax year. Please consult a tax advisor to review your specific situation and to determine your best course of action. If you should decide to carry over the excess contribution to a later year, DO NOT RETURN THIS FORM. |

☐ Remove excess plus/minus net income attributable. Distribute according to instructions in Section 3b.
☐ Remove excess plus/minus net income attributable. Re-deposit as a current year contribution (not to exceed annual IRA contribution limit). | B) The excess is being corrected after your federal income tax-filing deadline (including extensions). Earnings on the excess will remain in the account.

3c. Tax Withholding Election (REQUIRED)
Distributions from IRAs and qualified retirement plans that are not eligible for rollover are subject to federal income tax withholding and may be subject to state withholding. You may affirmatively elect additional withholding or opt to NOT have withholding applied to your distributions. Federal tax withholding is required for accounts with a foreign address. Please consult a tax professional or your state’s tax authority for additional information on your state requirements.
Federal Tax Withholding |
Federal income tax withholding is taken on any distribution, subject to the IRS withholding rules, at the rate of 10% from the gross payment amount even if it is excluded from gross income, unless an election is provided. The withholding procedure may result in excess payments to the IRS. Electing to have no federal taxes withheld from distributions or not having enough federal income tax withheld from distributions may cause you to be responsible for estimated tax. Under the estimated tax rules you may incur penalties if the estimated tax withholding payment is not sufficient. Please complete the section below, your election will remain in effect until the Custodian is notified in writing of a change.
Select one of the following:
☐ I elect NOT to withhold federal income tax | ☐ Withhold % federal income tax | ☐ Withhold 10% federal income tax |
State Withholding |
State income tax withholding requirements are determined by the state of your residence, if any. States with mandatory withholding may require state income tax to be withheld if withholding is taken for federal taxes or may mandate a fixed amount regardless of your federal tax election. Voluntary states allow you to determine if you would like state taxes withheld. Certain states are non-participatory and do not require income tax on retirement payments.
For Mandatory States Only: | For Voluntary States Only: | |
☐ I elect NOT to withhold state income Tax | ☐ Withhold $ or % state income tax |
