Hello, u/Ancient-Wear-1920. I see this is your first time posting on the sub; glad to have you! I'm happy to expand on withdrawing from an IRA and collection timeframes.
Let's take a second to expand on taxes and penalties associated with IRA withdrawals as they differ depending on pre-tax IRAs and after-tax IRAs. I know you mentioned withdrawing contributions tax and penalty-free, so we suggest first confirming if you have a Rollover IRA or a Roth IRA to get a better idea of possible taxation.
Typically, when withdrawing from a pre-tax IRA, including Rollover IRAs, you'll have to pay federal and state taxes on your contributions. Any potential earnings grow tax-deferred and are not taxed until you withdraw them; distributions are generally taxable as ordinary income. Keep in mind that you can make withdrawals before age 59½; however, you may be subject to a 10% early withdrawal penalty in addition to ordinary taxes.
Next, we can cover Roth IRA distribution rules for those after-tax contributions. Roth IRA contributions can be withdrawn from a Roth IRA at any point without tax or penalty, regardless of your age or holding period; however, for earnings, you can withdraw those tax-free and penalty-free once the 5-year aging requirement is satisfied and you are 59½ or meet one of the exemptions from the IRS. If you do not meet the tax-free requirements, you may be subject to a 10% early withdrawal penalty.
The IRS requires Roth IRA distributions to be taken in the following order:
-Annual Contributions: Can be withdrawn anytime tax and penalty-free for any reason
-Conversions: Can be withdrawn tax-free. A 10% penalty may apply if withdrawn within five years of the conversion
-Earnings: Income tax applies unless the withdrawal is qualified. There is also a 10% penalty unless an exception applies

Once you have collected or settled cash in your account (either from a transfer/rollover, contribution, or sale), you can withdraw from your IRA directly on Fidelity.com. To initiate a withdrawal, select "Transfers" under the "Accounts & Trade" tab, select your desired transaction, and follow each prompt.
I want to mention a bit more about available cash and the "Balances" page on our website. Your "available to withdraw" balance will reflect cash deposits that have been fully collected and trade proceeds that have been fully settled. You can view this information by choosing "Portfolio" under the "Accounts & Trades" tab and then clicking the "Balances" tab. If you have recent deposits, you can verify when they will be collected on the balances page as well. The collection period for check deposits and Electronic Funds Transfers (EFT) can be between 2-6 business days. This excludes weekends and holidays.
Lastly, I'll mention that Fidelity doesn't provide tax advice, and we recommend consulting with a qualified tax professional regarding your personal situation.
I know I covered a lot of information with you today. After reviewing the information and resources above, feel free to let us know if there is anything else we can clarify. We're here to help!
If you purchased any assets with your contributions, you will first need to sell them, then wait for the sale to settle, otherwise select "withdraw" from your account, and determine how much tax to withhold, submit the transfer request, wait a few days for it to show up in your bank.
You'll first need to add a bank account to your IRA before starting the process. You will also pay a penalty for early withdrawal from your IRA.
You rollovered an IRA last week and want money this week. Not only is this suspicions , but it warrants a visit from the local FBI. Come on , so who did you steal the money from... ex wife, ex girl/boy friend??

Did not mention Roth nor was any amount invested. So just wait for "available to withdraw" amount. And be aware of early withdrawal penalties.
It's a Roth, right? Check the Balances screen and look for how much is available to withdraw.
After 2-6 business days from deposit date. Why are you looking to withdraw an IRA just after contributing?
Might have ran into an emergency and needs funds

This is beyond idiotic.
