About Rmds

Required minimum distributions (RMDs) are the minimum amount that you are required to withdraw from certain types of retirement accounts each year once you reach a certain age. RMDs apply to traditional individual retirement accounts (IRAs) and 401(k) plans, as well as other types of retirement accounts that allow you to defer paying taxes on your contributions and earnings until you withdraw the money in retirement.

The age at which you must begin taking RMDs is 70½ for most types of retirement accounts. If you do not take your RMDs as required, you may be subject to a penalty tax of 50% of the amount you should have withdrawn but did not.

RMDs are calculated based on your age and the balance of your retirement account as of December 31 of the previous year. The calculation takes into account your life expectancy and is intended to ensure that you eventually deplete your retirement account and pay taxes on the money you have saved.

It's important to understand the rules and requirements for RMDs, as failure to take them as required can result in significant penalties. It's a good idea to consult with a financial advisor or tax professional to understand how RMDs may affect you and to ensure that you are meeting your RMD requirements.
