IRA Forms

Links to all the forms necessary to open IRA accounts and do trades with GoldStar Trust Company are found on this page. Adobe Acrobat Reader is necessary to download forms. These forms are in WRITEABLE format, which means that you can complete them by using the mouse to move the cursor to the highlighted (blue) spaces and then typing the information. If you want to fill in by hand, print the forms as they are.

Follow this link for a GoldStar Trust Traditional IRA or a SIMPLE IRA Account Application and other necessary forms This link takes you to a twenty-six page document, which includes the following forms:

  1. The account application, which GoldStar calls an IRA Simplifier, is on page 18. An application has to be completed and mailed to GoldStar Trust to open an account.
  2. A Direct Rollover Election form is on page 12. This form needs to be completed (and sent to GoldStar Trust) by investors who are transferring funds from Qualified Retirement Plans, tax-sheltered annuities, or other retirement plans. It is not used by investors transferring funds from existing IRA accounts.
  3. A Cash Transfer Request (combined with a Direct Rollover form) is on page 12. This form is used to request funds to be moved from an existing IRA to GoldStar Trust. This form should be completed and sent along with the account application to GoldStar when funds are being moved from an existing IRA. GoldStar will use the complete form to request the funds from the existing IRA.There is an option to using the Cash Transfer Request form. You can contact your existing IRA and instruct them to send the funds to GoldStar.
  4. An Investment Direction form is on page 11. An Investment Direction form needs to be completed and sent to GoldStar anytime an account holder buys or sells. Investment Direction forms may be mailed, but faxing is preferable because it is faster. An alternative delivery is to scan the form and email as an attachment. When forms are mailed, it usually slows the process three or four days.)On the Investment Direction form, there is a table where the items being bought are to be listed. There is also a TO BE DETERMINED box that can be checked.. In most instances, when accounts are being opened, investors do not know what items they will be buying. A signed Investment Direction form with the TO BE DETERMINED box checked speeds up the buying process.When an Investment Direction with the TO BE DETERMINED box checked is submitted with the account application, GoldStar Trust notifies CMI Gold & Silver Inc. when the account is set up and funded. Then a CMI Gold & Silver Inc. broker calls you for the purchase.If a signed Investment Direction is not sent with the account application, the buying process becomes more cumbersome, with the new account holder being notified by mail that the account is ready for investing. This usually slows up the buying for several days. (We’ve seen it slow up the buying by weeks when the Post Office failed to deliver the notice quickly.)Still, investors not comfortable with signing Investment Direction forms in blank can wait and complete a form at the time of purchase. When this is done, the WRITEABLE feature of Adobe Acrobat Reader permits the TO BE DETERMINED to be overwritten.
  5. A Rollover Certification is on page 16. This form needs be completed only when investors have received funds from retirement plans and are “rolling over” those funds to a GoldStar Trust IRA. In such cases, the rollover has to be completed within sixty days of receipt of the funds.Finally, when submitting a new account application to GoldStar Trust that will involve funds being transferred to GoldStar from an existing IRA, a copy of a recent statement of the existing IRA needs to be sent with the account application to GoldStar Trust.
