Advanced Required Minimum Distributions
Presentor: Stephen Forbes Recorded Date: 7/16/2013 Duration: 100 Min.
Description
This program was recorded during a live presentation on July 16, 2013.
Each year as your clients get older, the required minimum distribution (RMD) rules become more important. The importance of the rules is amplified by the fact that a mistake not only results in possible disqualification but also a significant penalty tax (50%).
Since many practitioners only encounter the RMD rules on an infrequent basis, they struggle with applying the rules in different situations. Adding to the complexity are the separate rules that apply upon the death of the participant. In addition, nonspouse beneficiary rollover rules have added a new dimension to plan administration, including the RMD rules.
This program walks you through the RMD rules and the nonspouse beneficiary rollover rules. It is filled with examples and the kind of detailed information that is difficult to find elsewhere.
Topics include:
- Required beginning dates
- Lifetime RMDs
- Designated beneficiaries
- RMDs after death
- Nonspouse beneficiary rollovers
