Frequently Asked Questions

Can I rollover my existing IRA or 401(k) from a previous employer into a Precious Metals IRA?

Can I take physical possession of my metals for a precious metals IRA? 

During the metals are in your IRA you can’t take physical possession of the metals as they must be held in IRA approved depository or vault. This ensures the metals are kept in compliance with IRS regulations and maintain their tax-advantaged status. Upon distribution you make the choice to take physical possession of the metals or convert the metals back to cash.

How long does it take to rollover an existing IRA/401k? 

This will vary based on which custodian you choose. The process of rolling over an existing IRA or 401(k) to a Precious Metals IRA typically takes between 7 to 14 business days.

Once I receive my old 401k funds, how long do I have to deposit them into my new precious metals IRA? 

In the case of a 401k rollover, your funds are generally paid directly to you. Once you have the funds in your possession, you have 60 days to transfer them into your new self-directed IRA account. The U.S. Gold Bureau will send you an overnight label to get the funds deposited right away. If you do not do so within this 60-day period, you may be required to pay taxes. We recommend consulting a tax advisor to fully understand these rules.

Am I allowed to have more than one precious metals IRA? 

Yes, an individual is allowed to have more than one precious metals IRA account.

How long after you ship my metals will they be in my account?

Are my metals insured at the depository? 

Yes, your metals are insured when stored at an IRS-approved depository. Reputable depositories usually offer insurance coverage to protect the precious metals from risks such as theft, damage, or natural disasters, and other insurance institutions insure the depositories.

When your metals are delivered to the depository, they will provide a confirmation of receipt. You should receive a detailed report outlining the metals’ weight, type, and purity. This confirmation ensures that your metals have arrived and meet the required specifications. You can also log into the portal with the custodian and download the inventory and tax statements.

Why would I invest in a self-directed precious metals IRA instead of investing in an ETF like GLD? 

We do not provide investment advice, but many of our clients prefer self-directed precious metals IRAs because they are backed by real, physical metal, versus an ETF like GLD, which is only backed by a pool of gold holdings and positions.
