27 Miss. Code. R. 220-IX-9.2

Current through December 10, 2024
Section 27-220-IX-9.2 - ROLLOVERS FROM THIS PLAN
a. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, a Participant shall be permitted to elect to have any Eligible Rollover Distribution as defined in Code Section 402(c)(4) paid directly to an Eligible Retirement Plan (as defined in Section 9.1(b)) specified by the Participant. The Participant shall, in the time and manner prescribed by the Board, specify the amount to be rolled over and the Eligible Retirement Plan to receive such rollover.
b. The election described in subsection (a) also applies to the surviving spouse who is the designated Beneficiary of the Participant, provided that such spouse directs the transfer of an Eligible Rollover Distribution [as defined in Section 9.1(a) into an Eligible Retirement Plan (as defined in Section 9.1(b)] in which such spouse is a participant.
c. To the extent allowed by law, a distribution from this Plan payable to a non-spouse Beneficiary may be rolled over via a trust-to-trustee transfer to an individual retirement account or individual retirement annuity established for the purpose of receiving such distribution, provided the distribution is an eligible rollover distribution. Any amount rolled over to such accounts will be treated as an inherited individual retirement account or annuity, subject to applicable minimum distribution rules.
d. An Eligible Rollover Distribution made after December 31, 2007, can be rolled over directly to a Roth IRA as provided by IRC Section 408A(e), as amended by the Pension Protection Act of 2006. Such direct rollover is subject to the rules that apply to rollovers from a traditional IRA to a Roth IRA. Effective for an Eligible Rollover Distribution made after December 18, 2015, it may be rolled over directly to a SIMPLE IRA as described in Code Section 408(p), provided that the rollover contribution is made after the two-year period beginning on the date the distributee first participated in any qualified salary reduction arrangement maintained by the distributee's employer under Code Section 408(p)(2), as described in Code Section 72(t)(6).
e. For tax years beginning prior to January 1, 2010, restrictions imposed on rollovers as provided under IRC Section 408A(d)(3), as amended by the Pension Protection Act of 2006, shall apply.
