Yes!
Federal, state and local taxes are due when the Account is paid to you. (The
Fund Office will withhold Federal taxes; you are responsible for payment of
state and local taxes.)
However, if you rollover your Account(s) to a traditional IRA or other
qualified plan, no taxes are withheld at the time of the rollover. Taxes are
due when you withdraw the money from the IRA or other Plan.
If you take a lump sum and do not roll it over or roll over only part of it, the
amount paid directly to you is subject to mandatory 20% federal income tax
withholding.
Payments not eligible for rollover (e.g., 10 annual installments, monthly
annuity) – Mandatory 10% withheld unless you elect other amount.
Do I have to pay taxes when I receive my Annuity and 401(k) Accounts?
