What Forms Will I Receive if I Rolled Over a 401(K), 403(B) Or Other Workplace Savings Plan to an IRA?

Look for IRS Form 1099-R from your 401(k) or 403(b) plan provider. This is the form the IRS requires employer-sponsored retirement plans to use to report direct rollovers. Just because you receive IRS Form 1099-R does not mean that you owe tax on the amount.

In the case of a direct rollover, you will also receive IRS Form 5498 from STRATA. It notifies the IRS that you rolled over that amount into an IRA, which means your money will remain untaxed until you withdraw it.
