I am a non citizen and have invested in US markets & 401k. will i be able to access investments once i leave?


I have been working in US for last 4 years on H1-B visa and my employment based greencard is in process. I am anticipating a greencard within next 2 years. I have invested in mutual funds and employer 401(k). If I decide to return to my home country in coming years (after my greencard is processed), will I be able to withdraw funds from my US 401(k) and other investments (for example - annuities) when they mature? I understand that to return to my home country, I will have to give up my green card. However, will I still have access to my investments in US? are they any legal/tax issues involved? Or is it benefitial/advisable to just liquidate my investments, take penalty hit and take the money home?

yes if you are citezin of outher contery
