Keeping Your Designated IRA Beneficiary Current is Important

Lake Wylie Tax Service | Bookkeeping | Payroll Service Posted on September 29, 2020 by Lake Wylie Tax Services StaffSeptember 29, 2020

Update your IRA BeneficiariesKeeping your designated IRA beneficiary current is very important. You may not want your account going to your ex-spouse, and you certainly do not want a deceased individual to be your beneficiary.
What’s more, a periodic review of your named IRA beneficiaries is vital to ensure that your overall estate planning objectives will be achieved in light of changes in the performance of your IRAs and your personal, financial, and family situations. For example, if your spouse was named your beneficiary when you first opened the account several years ago and you’ve subsequently divorced, your ex-spouse will remain the beneficiary of your IRA unless you notify your IRA custodian to change the beneficiary designation.

Thinking of Tapping Your Retirement Funds Early? What You Need To Know

Lake Wylie Tax Service | Bookkeeping | Payroll Service Posted on November 21, 2018 by Lake Wylie Tax Services StaffNovember 21, 2018

RetirementIf you are suddenly in need of a substantial amount of cash, probably the last thing you should do is tap your retirement funds. They are the key to a financially comfortable retirement. The younger you are, the less likely you are to think about saving for retirement, but you certainly don’t want to end up living off of only Social Security. However, there are times when there might not be any other alternative than dipping into your 401(k), IRA or other retirement plan. In that case, you have to be concerned not only with any tax liability, but also early withdrawal penalties if the funds are withdrawn before reaching age 59 1/2 Plus, some distributions may only be partially taxable and some not taxable at all, while others are fully taxable.

Like everything in the U.S. tax code, the rules relating to pension or other retirement plan distributions are complicated and governed by a variety of provisions. This article describes these various rules so you can see how they would apply to a withdrawal you might be contemplating.

Making Two IRA Rollovers in One Year Can Be Costly

Lake Wylie Tax Service | Bookkeeping | Payroll Service Posted on October 3, 2018 by Lake Wylie Tax Services StaffJanuary 23, 2020

Tax law permits you to take a distribution from your IRA account, and as long as you return the distribution to your IRA within 60 days, there are no tax ramifications. However, many taxpayers overlook that you are only allowed to do that once in a 12-month period, and violating this rule can have some nasty and unexpected tax ramifications.

The one-year period is measured based on the date a distribution is received. If the second distribution is received before the same date one year later, it is a disqualified rollover.
