Learning Objectives

  • Upon completion of this course, you'll be able to:
  • Evaluate the IRS penalty waiver process for missed RMDs (including Form 5329 procedures) to determine when "reasonable cause" exceptions apply to danger zone cases.
  • Analyze the statute of limitations for IRA shortfall distributions, examining whether the 3-year rule applies and how audit triggers may extend liability exposure.
  • Determine liability for unpaid RMD penalties after an account owner’s death, assessing executor, beneficiary, and custodian responsibilities under IRS rules.

Major Topics

  • Waiver of IRS penalty tax sanctions on failure to timely take required minimum distributions (Danger zone issue)
  • Statute of limitations on IRA shortfall distributions – Is it really three years?
  • What happens if an IRA owner fails to take required minimum distributions for many years and passes away before taking any action. Who is liable for the IRS penalty tax sanctions?
