Transferring assets between TD AMERITRADE accounts requires an internal transfer form. IRAs have certain exceptions; please contact TD AMERITRADE for more information. Your completed form must include both account numbers and a detailed description of the assets to be transferred (such as the exact amount of cash and/or number of shares of each security you wish to transfer). If you wish to transfer everything in the account, specify "all assets.

If you have not established the TD AMERITRADE account to which you want to transfer another account, you can open a new account using the online application. This will take you to a step-by-step tutorial that will help you complete your transfer request. If you've already established your TD AMERITRADE account, you must complete a TD AMERITRADE account transfer form.

When legally authorized, TD AMERITRADE pays interest on eligible free credit balances in your account. Simple interest is calculated on the entire daily balance and is credited to your account monthly. This is a convenience service only and is subject to the current TD AMERITRADE rates and policies, which are subject to change without notice. Wisconsin residents cannot earn interest.

If you are transferring a margin and/or options account with an existing debit balance and/or options contract, please make sure you have been approved for margin/options trading in your TD AMERITRADE account.

Many firms will charge fees to transfer your account, which may result in a debit balance after your transfer is completed.

A rollover is when your existing IRA custodian issues a check to you (this can only be done once a year). A transfer of assets is when your funds are sent directly between custodians.  To avoid income tax and a penalty tax on the rollover, you have 60 days from the date you receive your rollover check to invest the assets in another qualified IRA plan. There are no time constraints when you transfer assets directly between IRA custodians.
