IRA rollover to TSP - how long before I see funds in TSP?

Post by tipsy »

I submitted paperwork to request a direct rollover a IRA to my TSP and included the correct TSP form. I received confirmation from the company that managed my IRA that the funds had rolled over to the 'qualified plan'. How long should it take for me to see this in my TSP account?

Probably just a few business days. I would call the TSP if you don't see it within a week.

Could be a little longer if funds were sent by mail...keep checking your account online or call TSP

It can take some time. I don't remember exactly how long it was for me.

Thanks for all the responses. I learned that the company sending the check sent it by snail mail. TSP never got it. So I called the company and told them to cancel the check and FED EX a new one. They did on Monday. Will check with TSP today to make sure they have it.

Snail mail? No Tracking. Really? I can't believe they would do that with such an important check. Guess it was their way of saying "don't let the door hit you,..."

I rolled over the little I had in my 401K from when I worked at AT&T and they sent me the check but made it out to TSP and then I mailed it to TSP...TSP had it posted to my account in like a week week and half from when I mailed it to them...


Cheers!
