Surgent's 2021 IRA and Retirement Plan Changes and Planning On-Demand Webcast

Description

This program will review many important SECURE Act changes that take effect in 2021, as well as the new rules for restarting required minimum distributions (RMDs). Presenters will discuss the distribution rules applying to the beneficiaries of IRAs and employer plans that changed with the enactment of the SECURE Act, limiting the distribution options starting with beneficiaries who inherited IRAs in 2020.
