Summary

This Act amends the Internal Revenue Code to permit direct transfers from Roth IRAs to designated Roth accounts (such as Roth 401(k)s) in employer-sponsored retirement plans. The transfers must be made directly from trustee to trustee and can occur through automatic portability transactions when employees change jobs. A Roth IRA is eligible for transfer if it is the only Roth IRA maintained for the individual and meets specified balance requirements. Rollover amounts transferred from a Roth IRA to a designated Roth account are treated as investment in the contract for tax purposes. The changes are effective for amounts paid or distributed after the date of enactment.
