Hello!

 

question is about withdrawals after age 60.

 

Since ROTH IRA is post tax money, will "NON RESIDENT ALIENS" be taxed when it is withdrawn ?

i will most likely not be residing here when i'm 60.

 

i know its not taxed if im a resident, this question is purely about what happens if im not a resident of US.

 

thanks!

@ajaypai1971 , ROTH IRAs have already been taxed  and as long as  the withdrawal is five years  after contribution the growth is not taxable  -- I am not aware of any distinction of tax treatment based on immigration status.

Do you need more help on this

Thank you sirji..

If you can point me to a IRS doc that mentions that, would be of great help for my records to file.
