If you selected Rollover on your application, please contact your previous custodian to ask them to rollover or send funds to IRAFTC. Please complete a Deposit Form on our app and provide a current statement from the other custodian to accompany the incoming wire or check. The funds will be on hold until we receive them. If a Letter of Acceptance is needed, IRA Financial can provide upon request.

If you selected Contribution on your application, please send a deposit form when you wire funds or send a check to your Solo 401(k) as a current year or previous year contribution.
