In-Kind Transfer Form
- ” is different from a normal Transfer Form. Whereas the Transfer form is needed when only moving cash, the Inkind Transfer Form is needed when a client needs to transfer an asset from their current custodian’s IRA into a like IRA account at Quest Trust Company, Inc. (i.e. Traditional IRA to Traditional IRA). Transfers are initiated by the receiving custodian, but there will most likely be other steps the client will have to take when planning to move the ownership from one IRA custodian to another, i.e. reregistration of an asset. Therefore, if you are transferring to Quest, we assist with initiating the movement of any assets (and funds, if needed), and when transferring assets out of Quest Trust Company, you would work with the custodian that will receive the IRA funds.

The 990 T Payment Authorization Letter is needed when clients incur certain tax associated with their SDIRA.

In the event you choose to sell your investment property, a note is paid off, or you have received all dividends from your investment for example, our office will need you to complete this form to let us know to close out your asset. If this form is not completed, your investment will remain active inside of your IRA even if you no longer hold the asset.

By competing this form, you are attesting that you have exhausted all reasonable efforts to collect and are directing Quest Trust Company to reduce the value of the asset accordingly.
The Fair Market Valuation (FMV) Form is used to show the worth of the assets you hold in your Quest account.
