After-Tax and NUA
I currently have after-tax contributions, before tax contributions, and company match contributions in my 401(k). My 401(k) has approximately 70% of the value allocated to company stock. Is it possibly to elect NUA as well as roll my after-tax contributions to a Roth IRA? If so how would the ordering of distributions occur? Do I need to have the amount of after-tax contributions, before tax contributions, and employer match that was used to purchase the employer stock?
Thanks for your assistance.

Alan, thanks for your comments but I am slightly confused by your second bullet point. I am going to put some numbers to paper to ensure I am on the same page.My total account value $775,333. Lifestyle fund: $232,242. Employer stock: $543,091. Basis in employer stock: $272,478. After-tax post 1986 contributions (included in the basis in employer stock): $68,269. Below is where I am thinking the dollars will move:$68,269 – Roth IRA.$474,822 – Non-qualified account (with an ordinary income of $204,209)$232,242 –Traditional IRA.Thanks again.
