THE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, DECEMBER 30, 2022 DONATIONS | FROM Page 7 Page 13 ELIGIBLE DESIGNATED BENEFICIARY f you are a disabled or chronically ill individual or you are not more than 10 years younger than the deceased IRA owner or 401(k) plan participant, you can establish an Inherited IRA account in the name of the deceased account owner with you listed as the benefi ciary. Sometimes this type of account is referred to as a Benefi ciary IRA account. If the account owner dies prior to the RBD (Required Beginning Date), the date at which RMD’s (Required Minimum Distributions) commence, then the annual RMD’s going forward for the benefi ciary of the IRA account will be based upon his or her own life expectancy. Distributions must begin no later than December 31st of the year following the year of death. Furthermore, the beneficiary may withdraw any amount at any time as long as the entire balance in the IRA account is withdrawn by December 31st of the 10th year following the date of death of the original IRA account owner. If the IRA account owner or 401(k) participant dies after the Required Beginning Date, the annual RMD’s going forward are based upon the benefi ciary’s age and life expectancy or the age and life expectancy of the deceased original account owner, whichever is longer. Distributions from the Inherited IRA account must begin no later than December 31st of the year following the year of death of the original account owner. In this situation, the 10 year rule does not apply. A surviving spouse can simply roll the IRA account or 401(k) account of the deceased spouse into a Spousal IRA account and not have to take RMD’s until age 72. The RMD’s will be based upon his or her own life expectancy. The Secure Act 2.0, which is part of the most recent spending bill passed by Congress, extends I said the Divisional Commander for The Salvation Army in Massachusetts, Major Everett Henry. “The love and generosity of our neighbors has been with us and the people in need through a global pandemic, a persistent opioid cris is, an aff ordable housing shortage and more. On Thursday, December 22nd we bethe Required Beginning date to age 73 commencing in calendar year 2023. It will be increased to age 75 in calendar year 2033. When the account owner dies prior to the RBD, a non-eligible benefi ciary of an IRA account or 401(k) account, such as a child in the typical situation, may withdraw the monies in the account at any time as long as the entire balance is withdrawn by December 31st of the 10TH year following the account owner’s date of death. If the account owner dies after the RBD, the annual RMD’s are based upon the child’s age and life expectancy or the age and life expectancy of the account owner, whichever is longer, but the entire balance in the account must be distributed by December 31st of the 10th year following the date of death of the account owner. Distributions must begin no later than December 31st of the year following the date of death of the original account owner. These new RMD rules prevent children of the IRA or 401(k) account owner from “stretching” distributions over their life expectancy. A $500,000 IRA, for example, would have to be cashed out at the rate of $50,000 per year resulting in much higher income taxes over a much shorter period of time, not allowing for the account to grow tax deferred over the life expectancy of the child.
