- Please note certain trustees will need your original signature. These forms will need to be mailed to our office.
- If your IRA is partially or all invested in stocks, bonds, or mutual funds, contact the current trustee to liquidate/sell the current holdings. Let us know when this is complete, so we can then start the transfer process for you.
- Wait for the funds to arrive. Please note that the transfer process varies with each trustee and some will take longer than others. Please allow 1-3 weeks.
