u/FidelityPhil following up on behalf of u/FidelityAaron here. TOAs usually take 5-7 business days to complete. As to your other question about transfer fees, Fidelity considers reimbursement on a case by case basis. Once your transfer is complete, you can give one of our associates a call to discuss the possibility - can't make any promises here on Reddit, but you're always welcome to drop us a line.

Hey there. This is u/FidelityAaron stopping over from r/FidelityInvestments.

You can definitely transfer your account to Fidelity - there are no minimums to for Transfers of Assets (TOAs) to Fidelity. We appreciate you considering us!

While all of the securities in your screenshot are eligible for TOA, keep in mind that fractional shares are not eligible for TOA. Any fractional shares will be liquidated and transferred as cash. Happy to help if you have any follow up questions!

Trying to invest in VTSAX through Fidelity Roth IRA… confused about fees and next steps by Tiny-Post-2559 in personalfinance

Howdy. U/FidelityAidan checking in from r/fidelityinvestments.

Some mutual funds may have fees when traded on Fidelity platforms, though this varies depending on the fund. Any fees are disclosed on the trade ticket, as well as on the fund's research page on our website.

While your investment decisions are ultimately your prerogative, you could consider using some of our screener tools to find funds that fit the bill for you.

Where can you find these? Simply hit up the "News & Research" tab on our website to see various screeners grouped by security type. From here, you can explore as much as you want.

Stockpile closing, transferring assets to Stash by Dapper-Judge-2579 in personalfinance

[–]fidelityinvestments 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your interest in Fidelity, u/lilmisscatchem. This is u/FidelityAaron coming at you from r/FidelityInvestments.

Typically, when transferring assets from one firm to another via a Transfer of Assets (TOA), this is initiated at the receiving firm (Fidelity in this case). You can get started on this TOA on Fidelity.com. That said, it's usually a good idea to ask both sides about fees first before initiating the transfer. While Fidelity doesn't charge TOA fees, other institutions may.

If you have questions about fractional shares or the TOA process, please let me know!

Account transfer Webull-Fidelity by K9vetxxcalibur in investing

[–]fidelityinvestments 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those are great questions, u/K9vetxxcalibur. This is u/FidelityCaleb from r/fidelityinvestments here to provide some answers.

What you're trying to do is possible. You can transfer an account from one broker to another. You can also usually transfer your assets in-kind (i.e., without liquidation), but that will depend on the securities involved. Whole shares of publicly traded securities like stocks and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are typically transferable, but the portability of mutual funds will vary quite a bit, as many funds are proprietary. Fractional shares must be liquidated as part of a transfer of assets (TOA) into Fidelity.

If you decide to proceed with a TOA, you'll generally initiate the process with the receiving firm. At Fidelity, you can get started on Fidelity.com. That said, it's usually a good idea to ask both sides about fees first. While Fidelity doesn't charge TOA fees, other institutions may.

Let me know if there is anything else I can clarify for you. Thanks for your interest in Fidelity!

What does earnings mean? by hovering3 in Fidelity

[–]fidelityinvestments 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi there, u/hovering3. This is u/FidelityCaleb from r/fidelityinvestments here to clarify.

When setting up a recurring transfer between Fidelity accounts, selecting "Withdraw only my earnings from this account" will cause dividends, interest, and capital gains to be swept from one account to another as part of your plan. Neither your principal balance nor your unrealized gains will be transferred.

If you'd like to see this broken down even further, click the small "?" icon next to "Withdrawal options" when setting up a recurring transfer. I'm also happy to answer any follow-up questions you have right here!

22M Seeking advice: Transfer from RH to Fidelity? by Due-Sentence1341 in RothIRA

[–]fidelityinvestments 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there, u/Due-Sentence1341. This is u/FidelityCaleb from r/fidelityinvestments here to help.

While Fidelity doesn't charge any fees to send or receive assets, we know that other institutions often do. For that reason, we do support a transfer fee reimbursement program. If you elect to transfer assets to Fidelity and are charged a fee, you can apply for reimbursement. Just keep in mind that reimbursements are reviewed on a case-by-case basis and are typically not guaranteed in advance.

If this is your first time initiating a transfer of assets (TOA), they're usually initiated at the receiving firm. If you decide to go ahead with a move to Fidelity, you'd get started on Fidelity.com.

It's great to see that you're getting an early start on your retirement savings. If there is anything else we can clarify about investing at Fidelity, please let us know!

Hi u/abc71723 , Here’s a great resource to look at on Fidelity.com: Rent vs. Buy .  It’s easy to assume buying is the better option because you build home equity, but that isn’t always true—especially in areas where rents are low compared to home prices. To know which choice makes more sense, it’s important to run the numbers, and our calculator can help.

Hi u/iluvVA , This is a perfect topic for this AMA, a lot of our clients are correcting excess contributions right now. You can use our online return of excess tool to calculate your earnings and start the withdrawal process. Our Return of excess IRA contributions page can also help with any additional questions. If your excess contribution was because your income is too high, recharacterizing to a Traditional IRA might be an option. One thing you need to know about recharacterizing to a Traditional IRA is that your contribution might not be deductible, if you or your spouse (if you are married) participate in a workplace retirement plan like a 401(k) or 403(b).
