Secure Act 2.0

The Secure Act 2.0 was signed into law on December 29, 2022. Some of the provisions include:

  • Age increase for Required Mandatory Distributions (RMDs) from IRAs to 73 for anyone who will be 72 on or after January 1, 2023.

  • RMD age increases again to 75 on January 1, 2033.

  • The penalty if an individual fails to take RMD is reduced to 25% (10% if individual corrects within 2 years).

  • Beginning in 2024, Roth 401(k) owners will be eligible to skip RMDs.

  • Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs): For a few years now, individuals over 70½ have been able to use a QCD to donate up to $100,000 to qualified charities directly from an IRA. That amount will now be indexed for inflation.

  • Individuals are now permitted to a one-time transfer of up to $50,000
