There are no tax “penalties” for withdrawing money from an investment account. This is because investment accounts do not receive the same tax-sheltered treatment as retirement accounts like an IRA or a 403(b). There are also no age restrictions on when you can withdraw from your investment account.

What is the penalty for taking money out of 401k?
If you withdraw money from your 401(k) before you’re 59½, the IRS usually assesses a 10% penalty when you file your tax return.

Can I withdraw from my 403b without penalty?
In some cases you can make early withdrawals from a 403(b) without paying a penalty. Similarly to a 401(k), 403(b) account holders can start taking distributions in the year they leave work as long as they turn 55 or older in that same year. You won’t pay the penalty for withdrawals after you’ve become disabled.
What are the exceptions to the 10% early withdrawal penalty?
First-Time Home Purchase. Up to $10,000 of an IRA early withdrawal that’s used to buy, build, or rebuild a first home for a parent, grandparent, yourself, a spouse, or you or your spouse’s child or grandchild can be exempt from the 10% penalty. You must meet the IRS definition of a first-time homebuyer.
