Does all the firms offer offer Roth 401K? If you new firm does not offer Roth 401K what should do when you change jobs with your current Roth 401K? Anyone went through this in past care to share provide some insights? TIA

The one I have is a pre tax 401k. I max out the matching and then put additional into a Roth IRA I have through a financial broker. If you change jobs you can keep your Roth 401as an independent account with the broker your previous employer used.

If the new firm does not offer a Roth 401K, you can do a transfer to your personal Roth IRA. Agree with you to put as much 401k in Roth as possible to set yourself up for success!

It always depends on an individual's situation, but I generally tell people to go for a Roth over a Traditional when it comes to retirement contributions. That being said, putting money in any retirement account is better than putting no money.

You contribute yourself pre tax?

Yes and it grows tax free. I am in low tax bracket so thinking to fill it up until I jump into higher tax brackets

Are you contributing to a Roth IRA? If not you should start there before changing job for a simple tax attribute on a retirement benefit that you have to fund yourself

You can contribute to both a Roth 401K and a Roth IRA. You just have to meet the eligibility requirements for both. And if you don't for a Roth IRA, you can always do a backdoor Roth to get around it.

If your new plan doesn’t offer a designated Roth account you can always just leave it where it is. Or you can roll it over into a Roth IRA. If you roll it into a Roth IRA then it can never go back to a 401K so just keep that in mind.

TM1, yes. The IRA could still be protected under state law, but it differs from each state. The 401k in contrast is protected from bankruptcy from creditors under federal law.

Just get one yourself thru Fidelity.

Its pretty common. From my experience mid-size firms usually offer roth 401k

I'm a little lost on the question. Your current firm has a Roth 401K, but you are wondering what would happen if the next firm you go to doesn't have a Roth 401K? You can always roll your Roth 401K into a Roth IRA, if you just don't want to leave it where its at.

Advice needed on handing in notice, I recently signed an offer letter and understand the screening process takes 4-6 weeks. I have a month's notice period and have agreed a preliminary start date in Feb.

I was planning on not handing my notice in until the checks had been completed so its all secured (not that I think I will fail any checks), but apparently I need a reference from my current employer not previous ones. Can't really do this without handing in notice can I?
