Your 401(k)s, 403(b)s, and IRAs are portable; you can take them when you leave an employer. The funds you contribute always belong to you; however, the employer’s contribution often has some vesting period (often three years) until the employer’s funds belong to you. You can leave the funds in your current mutual fund manager or transfer them to the mutual fund manager at your new employer. Just make sure you have the funds transferred from manager to manager and not sent to you. The mutual fund managers are quite familiar with how to accomplish this.
