IRA Rollover Notice
 
Effective January 2015: Long-Standing IRS Rollover Interpretation Changing
 
If you're considering rolling over your IRA assets to an existing or new IRA, you need to be aware of an upcoming change that will affect IRA rollovers. The IRS is changing its interpretation of the one-per-12-month rule following a recent U.S. Tax Court ruling in Bobrow v. Commissioner. The court ruled that a taxpayer is limited to one rollover per 12-month period, regardless of the number of IRAs he has.

The IRS for decades stated that you could roll over one IRA distribution per 12-month period for each IRA that you own. The IRS issued guidance in March 2014, stating that it will apply the tax court's new interpretation going forward, but that it will not apply before January 1, 2015.

When the IRS applies its new interpretation effective for distributions taken on or after January 1, 2015, you may roll over only one IRA distribution in any 12-month period, regardless of how many IRAs you own. You still may perform an unlimited number of transfers.

You should consult with a competent tax advisor if you are rolling over an IRA distribution.

Our Community
 
Little Holiday Smiles
 
Last month, Pen Air FCU focused on making the holidays brighter for local children.
 
Toys for Tots
Pen Air FCU elves were very busy this holiday season. All Pen Air FCU branch locations served as donation sites for Toys for Tots donations, and the results are in. Through the communerosity of both members and employees, Pen Air FCU was able to donate over $1,000 in toy donations to children in our surrounding communities. The toys were even delivered before Christmas so each child had a gift to open.
 
NAS Pensacola Children's Holiday Party 
The holiday bells were ringing at the NAS Youth Center last month and Pen Air FCU couldn’t help but to join in on the fun! Children from Escambia County arrived by the bus-load and celebrated the holidays with dancing led by Penny the Pen Air Porpoise, arts and crafts, and even a gift from Santa himself.
