Required Minimum Distribution

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act suspends all RMD requirements for 2020. This means retirees do not have to take 2020 RMD's from retirement accounts subject to these distributions, such as IRA's, 401K's, and inherited accounts.  


For years outside of 2020, tax law specifies that once you reach age 72  (70 1/2 if you turned 70 1/2 before January 1, 2020) you must begin making taxable withdrawals from traditional IRAs and many other retirement plans. These minimum distributions are calculated annually based on your age, the account balance at the end of the previous year, marital status, and spouse's age. If you do not take the annual minimum distribution, you may be subject to a 50% penalty on your underpayment, plus ordinary income tax as the funds are withdrawn. Persons age 72 (70 1/2 if you turned 70 1/2 before January 1, 2020) and older may find this calculator most useful.
