Qualified birth or adoption distributions are exempt from the 10% early distribution tax penalty, exempt from 20% mandatory federal tax withholding, and can be repaid to certain retirement plans and IRAs without regard to the usual 60-day time limit for rollovers.

Qualified birth or adoption distributions are subject to optional federal income tax withholding. The default tax withholding is 10%.

State income tax withholding may be required from your distribution.
