What is the name of your state? Georgia
Hi, will try and be as clear as possible regarding my situation.
I will be working in the USA until December 24, 2004. After that, I move back to India permanently.
I will be filing my taxes for Georgia for the year 2004.
However, I will have around 50K in my 401K account at that point of time.
I am aware that there is a 10% withdrawal penalty and a 20% Federal Tax withholding if I withdraw before the age of 59 1/2.
Would it be wiser to just withdraw the amount in 2004 or should I wait to withdraw the amount in tax year 2005 ? In 2005, I will be paying taxes in India but will be filing Tax Returns in the US on Global Income.
Can you please advice which option is better ?
Thanks.
