 ► “While it is true that distributions from individual retirement accounts (IRA) are not taxed if they are ROLLED OVER to new IRAs within 60 days of receipt, this tax-free grace period, which allows an individual to put the funds to short-term use, can be used only once in a one-year period.” (Small Business Reports, Sept. 1993, p. 65)
