Retirement tax questions
Hi Indeerajeet!
The first thing to look at is your age at the time of withdrawal. Three are exceptions but usually if you are younger than 59 1/2 years old, the withdrawal would be fully taxed as well as an additional 10% penalty.
Next this rule applies for US residents and nonresident aliens. Ordinary tax and the 10% penalty.
Key Takeaways. When it comes to early retirement account withdrawals, the rules are the same for both U.S.residents and nonresident aliens. Your entire 401(k) withdrawal will be taxed as income by the U.S. even if you're back in your home country when you withdraw the funds.
And yes when we say ordinary income, we mean this withdrawal amount will be added to all of your other US income to determine which tax bracket you fall on. So it could potentially put you into another tax bracket. Here is the IRS Tax Bracket Calculator for you to estimate that effect: https://www.google.com/search?q=irs+tax+bracket+calculator+2023&rlz=1C1GCEA_enUS989US996&oq=irs+tax+...
