Change from resident to non-resident Question: suppose I cease to be a resident for US tax purposes mid-January 1999 (say the 15th).

In 1999, theoretically a return should be filed for the part year any income received by that date.

Now, after leaving I want to take all the funds out of my 401k plan. I have contributions up to the 6% limit and then some beyond that limit. Can I take out both portions?

Tax wise, regardless of which or both portions able to take out of the 401k plan, do they withhold a certain percentage for tax?? Then, upon filing a US tax return, I would claim this tax paid? My tax for the year would be at a lower rate because I would have very little income ( a few weeks to a month + the funds coming out of my 401k) so I would probably be paying tax at the lowest rate and get a refund if they withheld at a higher rate.

Does that seem right?

Last Question (for now) on ceasing non-residency. I have a 401k with my first employer and am in the process of rolling it over into a self -directed IRA. Am I best to roll it over OR like my previous question on 401k money, should I cash it in ??
