A rollover or rollover contribution is the transfer of a distribution from a qualified plan, a Section 403(b) tax-sheltered annuity, an individual retirement account (IRA) or an eligible Section 457 governmental plan. Distributions that are rolled over according to applicable tax rules and regulations are not included in gross income until receipt at some time in the future.
