Recently moved employers and submitted a request to rollover my 401k from Vanguard to an IRA at Schwab. They accepted my request but said it was pending employer approval and it shows this status in the website.
Just learned that once I have pre-tax funds in an IRA I won't be able to do backdoor Roth IRA contributions going forward so I want to cancel this request and leave it sitting in the old 401k for now.
Called Vanguard and they said they can't cancel it as it's submitted and just waiting employer approval.
Does anyone have any advice? Or a contact at Vanguard to who can cancel a pending request?
Or advice on how to keep making backdoor a Roth contributions once we have this $150K in pre-tax sitting in the IRA?
