I worked for a non-profit (hospital) and was able to put money away in a 457b and 403b. I have since left that job and no longer work for a non-profit. I was able to move the money in the 403b, but not the 457b. I can no longer contribute to it. Should I cash out or let it sit? The current value is around 12k.

If you are hapy with the investment selection/performance, then leave it be...

If not, you can "roll it over" to an IRA, which should give you a broader selection of investment opportunities.

I've done that with several 401K accounts....

I tried to roll it over to an IRA but wasn't allowed. The problem is that I have moved all my other accounts to a different advisor and this one account is stuck with Lincoln.

Was there a time restriction? Or some other requirement?

457(b) plans sponsored by governmental units are eligible for rollover. 457(b) plans sponsored by other tax-exempt entities are not eligible for rollovers. The hospital that the OP worked for must have been a non-governmental tax-exempt organization.

I don't know the reasons for the differences. I just know they exist.

Maybe a certain Nebraska, or Louisiana Senator could get him an exemption from that....
