Loan against 401K Cares ACT

[PhillyDotNetGuy]

anyone took a loan against 401K. Interest rate is only 3.25%.

Normally you are allowed to take only 50% of the amount but CARES ACT now allows to take 100% of vested balance.

if we take this loan does it come under public charge?

Its a loan. Loan doesn't have penalty as he is paying back with interest. Withdrawal has 10% penalty.

Again, loan is not treated as withdrawal. Therefore, no need to worry during tax filing.

Yes, you just have to say "yes". You don't need to show proof.

CARES Act makes it easier to withdraw funds saved in certain tax-advantaged retirement accounts like 401(k)s and traditional Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs). These temporary changes eliminate tax penalties on certain early withdrawals and relax rules on loans you can take from some types of accounts.

Let’s take a closer look at the retirement-related provisions in the CARES Act, and see which of them could help you cope with financial stresses stemming from the COVID-19 crisis.

Eligibility restrictions for CARES Act retirement plan withdrawals

First things first: Not all tax-advantaged retirement account holders can take advantage of the CARES Act’s relaxed early distribution and loan provisions. Specifically, the legislation restricts relief to qualified participants with a valid COVID-19 related reason for early access to retirement funds. These include:

Being diagnosed with COVID-19

 

Having a spouse or dependent diagnosed with COVID-19

 

Experiencing a layoff, furlough, reduction in hours, or inability to work due to COVID-19 or lack of childcare because of COVID-19

 

Have had a job offer rescinded or a job start date delayed due to COVID-19

 

Experiencing adverse financial consequences due to an individual or the individual’s spouse’s finances being affected due to COVID-19

 

Closing or reducing hours of a business owned or operated by an individual or their spouse due to COVID-19

Baltimore-based CPA Michele Cagan warns that you will be required to prove that COVID-19 affected you personally if you want to take advantage of the CARES Act provisions. Without a valid Coronavirus-related condition, you’ll need to play by the standard rules.
But even if you meet one or more of these eligibility requirements, that does not necessarily mean you will be able to access money in your workplace retirement accounts. That’s because the CARES Act does not require employers to follow the new, more permissive withdrawal and loan rules. Fidelity Investments, for example, says it expects the vast majority of plans it administers to adopt the new rules.
Ask your plan sponsor first. “Not all retirement plans will accept the CARES Act provisions for COVID-19 related hardships,” cautions Charlie P. Nelson, chief executive officer of Retirement and Employee Benefits for Voya Financial, Inc. “The provisions are entirely within the purview of the retirement plan, so participants must check first to see what their plan sponsor offers.”

How does the CARES Act relax early distribution rules?

The CARES Act allows eligible participants in certain tax-advantaged retirement plans — including 401(k)s, 403(b)s, 457s, and Traditional IRAs — to take an early distribution of up to $100,000 during calendar year 2020 without paying the 10% penalty tax the law imposes on most retirement account withdrawals before an account owner is 59 1/2. Note that this is $100,000 in total, per person, no matter how many retirement accounts you have.

In addition, the act suspends the mandatory 20% tax withholding requirement that normally applies to early distributions from a 401(k) or other workplace retirement plan. (There is no withholding requirement on early withdrawals from IRAs.)
Keep in mind that withholding isn’t a tax, but rather the IRS’s way of ensuring you ultimately pay whatever ordinary income tax you end up owing on withdrawals. Nelson warns that this aspect of the reform could create a potential tax landmine down the road if you don’t plan ahead.
“There’s no mandatory 20% withholding from an early distribution, as would normally be the case, but that does not mean that people won’t owe taxes. It’s important to budget appropriately to be able to pay your taxes,” said Nelson
The CARES act gives you extraordinary flexibility to manage the resulting tax liability. You can choose to spread the taxes owed over three years, or pay it all in 2020 if your income (and thus your tax rate) is much lower this year.
