Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)What is a Gold IRA?
A Gold IRA, or Precious Metals IRA, is a self-directed Individual Retirement Account that allows you to invest in physical precious metals (gold, silver, platinum, palladium) instead of traditional financial assets like stocks, bonds, or mutual funds. These metals must be held in an IRS-approved depository, and the account is managed by a qualified custodian like Gold IRA Custodians.
Why do I need a Gold IRA Custodian?
The IRS mandates that a qualified custodian or trustee must manage a self-directed IRA. A Gold IRA Custodian ensures the account complies with IRS rules regarding precious metals investments, handles the buying and selling of metals, facilitates rollovers or transfers from other retirement plans, and arranges for secure storage by an approved depository. Without a custodian, you cannot legally hold physical gold within a traditional IRA structure.
What exactly does Gold IRA Custodians do?
We act as the custodian for your Gold IRA. Our responsibilities include opening the self-directed IRA account, guiding you through the rollover or funding process, selecting and approving IRS-qualified dealers for purchasing metals, overseeing the secure storage of your assets in an approved depository, processing transactions, and ensuring ongoing compliance with IRS regulations.
What types of precious metals are allowed in a Gold IRA?
Gold IRAs typically allow investments in certain forms of physical gold (like bullion bars and coins meeting specific purity standards, e.g., .995 fine gold), as well as silver, platinum, and palladium. The specific forms and minimum fineness requirements are outlined in IRS guidelines (Publication 935). We help you navigate these specifications to ensure your chosen metals are eligible.
Can I roll over my existing retirement funds into a Gold IRA?
Yes, you can typically roll over funds from eligible retirement plans like 401(k)s, 403(b)s, traditional IRAs, and HSAs into a self-directed Gold IRA. This process involves a direct trustee-to-trustee transfer or a 60-day rollover. We specialize in facilitating these rollovers correctly to avoid tax penalties and ensure a smooth transition of your funds into your precious metals investment strategy.
