Long wait

You are entitled to a distribution of your vested amount from your qualified retirement plan by April 1 of the first year after the later of the following years. 1) the calendar year in which you reach age 70-1/2, or 2) the calendar year in which you retire. If your plan specifies an earlier date, then that date is valid.
