Does the Carry Solo 401k allow solo 401k loans and hardship withdrawals?

Yes, the Carry Solo 401k Plan supports both loans and hardship withdrawals.

About the solo 401k loan

A solo 401k loan lets you borrow up to 50% of your account’s cash balance up to a maximum of $50,000, with a typical repayment period of 5 years.

About the solo 401k hardship withdrawal

A hardship withdrawal allows you to take an early distribution from your plan (before you reach the age of 59½) without being hit with a 10% early distribution penalty from the IRS.

Eligible reasons for taking a hardship withdrawal.

  • You become disabled
  • You pass away and your solo 401k is transferred to your beneficiary
  • You need the funds to prevent being evicted or having your home foreclosed
  • Funeral expenses
  • Higher education costs
  • Uninsured medical expenses
  • Purchase of a primary residence
  • Repairing your primary residence

Not all cases are eligible and your plan provider will need to assess each application case-by-case.
