TSP transfer

0

Q. My husband and I are looking at investing into a new hotel being built. I have worked in the hotel industry for 15 years, and this is a great opportunity for us. He has been active duty in the Air Force since 2011 and has roughly $20,000 in his TSP. Can he transfer his TSP balance to a Self Direct IRA to invest the money into the hotel deal? Are there penalties involved? He would continue his normal contributions to the TSP account as we move forward, but we are interested in using the $20,000 to invest in the hotel.

A. He may if he’s aged 59-1/2 or older.
