Setting up a Gold IRA is a straightforward process but requires careful planning. The first step is to select an IRS-compliant SDIRA custodian who will help manage your account. Next, you open your self-directed IRA, which usually takes 1 to 3 days. Afterward, you fund the account through a direct rollover from a 401(k) or existing IRA. Once the account is funded, you purchase IRS-eligible metals, ensuring the gold has at least a .995 fineness. Finally, your gold is stored in an IRS-approved depository.
