Brian P ONeill MergedThis is going to become a lot more prevalent and there's already a good article on the Kitces site. Seems like it might be low-hanging fruit? Thanks for considering!

Robert Pyne MergedAnd more specifically comparing the benefits of a "see through/conduit" trust vs. just a regular beneficiary arrangement for non eligible designated bene's,
i.e. taxes, tax filings, trustee fees, creditor protection, flexibility, ruling from the grave, etc. -

ChrisGranger AdminLanguage from other similar suggestion that was merged into this one: This info pulled from a recent Wealth Management article:
The post-death RMDs for a trust named as an IRA beneficiary will be calculated under either the stretch payout rule, the 10-year rule, or the five-year rule, depending on certain attributes of the trust and the trust beneficiaries. It matters whether the trust qualifies as a see-through trust, whether it is a conduit trust or an accumulation trust, and whether the trust beneficiaries are nonindividuals, “regular” beneficiaries or part of the new class of “eligible designated beneficiaries.” -

ChrisGranger AdminLanguage from "Inherited Roth IRA Distribution Rules" suggestion that was merged into this one: "Similar to the existing flowchart for the RMDs from a Traditional IRA, but showing a beneficiary options depending on DOD (i.e. whether it was before the SECURE Act), beneficiary type, before or after RMD age, and whether or not the Roth 5-year rule had been met by the account owner etc."

Original language from this merged suggestion: "Chart displaying what types of accounts can be aggregated for purposes of calcing RMDs
All Trad IRS Seps & Simples, ( total amount can be taken from any account)
403b ( same as above )
Qualified plans must be separate calcs and distribution for each plan etc." -

ChrisGranger Admin"fixing Roth or Regular IRA excess/ineligible contribution" (suggested by Sean Cook on 2018-11-09), including upvotes (2) and comments (0), was merged into this suggestion. Original language from this merged suggestion: "Had a client where you found out their income was too high for the contributions they made? What if it was not just current year? What do they have to withdraw, can they recharacterize it, are there any penalties, IRS form to file, etc. A flowchart to help coordinate fixing it would be good for client service."

ChrisGranger Admin"Is my ira subject (exempt) to (from) the IRA One Rollover per Year Rule?" (suggested by J.C. Corrigan on 2021-05-21), including upvotes (1) and comments (0), was merged into this suggestion. Original language from this merged suggestion: "The definition of "trustee-to-trustee" feels rather implicit. If a client wants to transfer a beneficiary IRA at Fidelity to a beneficiary IRA at Schwab, is this subject to the One Rollover per Year or Tstee to Tstee? There are several other examples like this situation."

Original language from this merged suggestion: "I see an IRA distribution flow chart. A flow chart showing when you can take money from a 401k penalty free would be helpful. For example, using the rule of 55 when someone retires at age 55 and can access their retirement funds without penalty."

ChrisGranger Admin"Should a surviving spouse create an inherited IRA" (suggested by Mike Keeler on 2021-09-02), including upvotes (2) and comments (0), was merged into this suggestion. Original language from this merged suggestion: "I know it is pretty simple, if the surviving spouse <59.5, so inherited IRA. But it would be nice to have something that explains the 10% penalty if you take money out of an IRA that has been rolled over."

Brick ParsonsGuidance on distribution options for inherited Traditional & Roth IRAs would be highly useful to my team and clients, especially options for non-spouse distribution requirements. As the baby boomer generation starts to age, our industry will be seeing an influx of these accounts over the years ahead. Thanks for your consideration!

Richard HallumPerhaps I'm mistaken, but I believe if the owner of an IRA died after the RBD, then a non-eligible beneficiary would have to take an RMD calculated using the Single Life Expectancy Table for years 1-9, making sure the account was empty by 12/31 of year 10. If I'm correct, then your flow chart, "Can I Delay Distributions From The Traditional IRA I Inherited?", needs to be updated.

Justin WallerIf you could build in the logic to a workflow that included the client's DOB and the decedent's DOD, that would make the tool very powerful and less about when the person reached age 70.5 or 73.
When were they born...
What type of accounts do they have... (Inherited = we need DOD and relationship etc...)
What issues do we need to consider...RMD on *this* schedule, Roth Conversion, QCD (or not - no QCD on inherited IRAs) broken down by account would be amazing!
If you were so inclined, you could also include the balance of the account at the prior year and an estimate of RMD amounts or a progression i.e., in 2023, RMD = 0; based on the same account value, the RMD in 2024 would be X, and the RMD in 2025 would be Y. -

Mike DeBergeRMD's impacting Roth 401(k) accounts and the impact of the 5-year Rule on Roth 401(k) Rollovers are scenarios that I encounter more frequently as after-tax balances continue to grow in defined contribution plans.. It might needs its own flow-chart or even a one-pager "how to" guide on Roth 401k rollovers that fpPathfinder subscribers could brand. Either would be very useful. Here's an article on Smart Asset that I've found to be a good resource on the topic.
