    It depends. A rollover is the transfer of money from one retirement plan to another. You have 60 days to deposit the funds into your new qualified account without penalty. Otherwise, it'll be treated as income. 

    If completed properly, an annuity rollover is not a taxable event since the money remains within a designated retirement plan.

    Is it a qualified annuity (such as an IRA), or a non-qualified one?
