What Is a Normal Retirement Distribution?
To avoid the tax hit completely on your lump sum retirement distribution, it is advisable that you contact your investment representative, banker or new employer’s retirement administrator before you agree to receive your pension distribution. Establish a rollover IRA account with your investment broker or banker.
When do I receive my required minimum distribution from my IRA?
When must I receive my required minimum distribution from my IRA? You must take your first required minimum distribution for the year in which you turn age 72 (70 ½ if you reach 70 ½ before January 1, 2020). However, the first payment can be delayed until April 1 of 2020 if you turn 70½ in 2019.
