Inherited IRA RMD

Post by sonos »

In the past I have taken my December, end of the year, Inherited IRA account total and taken the withdraw in January. This has always been sufficient but as I look now my withdraw last January is short by $800. Can I make the adjustment this January or do I need to do it know in December?

Thanks in advance!

If you are referring to your RMD, you need to take it before the end of this year.

Your 2017 RMD is based on the 12/31/2016 balance and must be withdrawn from the account by 12/31/2017. Any amount not taken which should have been can have an additional 50% penalty applied.
