Q. I’m retired and I wanted to rollover a 403(b) from a previous employer to my TSP. The problem is that the 403(b) does not sent a completed TSP-60 with the check. This has happened twice. I receive a letter from the TSP that they will hold the check for 15 days before sending it back to the sender. I know that there is a certain amount of time for having a tax-free transfer but I’m tired of this BS from both companies. Should I just request a full withdrawal from the 403(b) and deal with the taxes?
A. You can roll the 403(b) over into an IRA at your bank and then do the transfer to the TSP from there.
