A rollover can also be considered indirect. What is the difference between a direct and indirect rollover?

An indirect rollover is processed as a distribution from the employer plan, so the check is payable to the client and not the other financial firm. The client has 60 calendar days to deposit the funds into their IRA (or another employer plan). An indirect rollover can also be processed from IRA to IRA (another or the same IRA) or from an IRA to an employer plan. (Please Note: The client can do only one indirect rollover from IRA to IRA in a rolling 365-day period.)
