FAQ

Generally, the IRS will waive the penalty if these scenarios apply: You are terminally ill. You become or are disabled. You gave birth to a child or adopted a child during the year (up to $5,000 per account). You rolled the account over to another retirement plan (within 60 days).

Illinois doesn't tax pension distributions or retirement plan income, including from IRAs, 401(k) plans and government retirement plans. AARP's Retirement Calculator can help you determine if you are saving enough to retire when — and how — you want.

Deferring Social Security payments, rolling over old 401(k)s, setting up IRAs to avoid the mandatory 20% federal income tax, and keeping your capital gains taxes low are among the best strategies for reducing taxes on your 401(k) withdrawal.

Illinois doesn't tax Social Security or any other type of retirement income. Social Security benefits, pensions, IRA, and 401(k) distributions are tax-exempt. However, Illinois has a flat income tax rate of 4.95%, so earnings from other sources (such as investment income) are taxable.

Take an early withdrawal You'll need to speak with someone at your company's human resources department to see if this option is available and how the process works. Generally, you'll need to complete some paperwork, and describe why you need early access to your retirement funds.

To report the tax on early distributions, you may have to file Form 5329, Additional Taxes on Qualified Plans (Including IRAs) and Other Tax-Favored Accounts PDF. See the Form 5329 instructions PDF for additional information about this tax.

If income is greater than $2,775, your exemption allowance is 0. For tax years beginning January 1, 2025, it is $2,850 per exemption. If someone else can claim you as a dependent and your Illinois income is $2,850 or less, your exemption allowance is $2,850.

If a 401(k) plan participant withdraws funds from their plan before age 59½, they would be subject to a 10 percent early withdrawal penalty from the IRS. In California, taking early distributions from a 401(k) also means incurring an additional state tax.

If you're taking out funds from your retirement account prior to age 59½ and exceptions apply, use IRS Form 5329 to report the amount of 10% additional tax you owe on an early distribution or to claim an exception to the 10% additional tax.
