About the Program

Three major new developments in planning for retirement benefits! The SECURE Act upended classic estate planning techniques by replacing the “life expectancy payout” with the “10-year rule” for most beneficiaries. The CARES Act cancelled required minimum distributions for 2020, plus provides tax breaks for coronavirus-related distributions. Plus, new IRS life 3 expectancy tables!

 

  • What to tell new clients about their options for retirement benefits
  • Reviewing existing estate plans---don’t change the document, change the plan!
  • How does the 10-year rule work for individuals? Trusts?
  • The four different sets of minimum distribution rules for the five categories of “eligible designated beneficiaries” who still get the life expectancy payout
  • Alternatives---charitable trusts, Roth conversions, annuities?
  • SECURE effect on pre-2020 deaths
  • CARES cancels RMDs: Planning implications, effect if you already took RMD
