Invest in 401k?

I plan to return to India after I have repaid my education loan. Should I still invest in 401k?

Do you have to be in America to withdraw from 401k account?

No

Thanks. Then I don't see why 401k is any different from investing anywhere else.

If you’re in a high tax bracket, sure. If there’s a company match, definitely. Withdraw it after you’ve left and have no US income. You’ll pay the early withdrawal penalty (10%?) plus the lowest tax bracket.

Or you can convert to ROTH IRA and just pay the tax

I think you will be in the money if the company match is more than the withdrawal penalty
