Print pension and IRA distributions on Form 1040, line 4a. If the pension or IRA distribution income is fully taxable, the system leaves Form 1040 or 1040-SR, line 4a, and line 4c blank.
Generally, early withdrawal from an Individual Retirement Account (IRA) prior to age 59½ is subject to being included in gross income plus a 10 percent additional tax penalty.
Use Form 5329 to report distributions subject to the 10% additional tax on early distributions from a qualified retirement plan, including traditional IRAs. If you received a distribution that meets an exception, but box 7 on Form 1099-R doesn't show an exception, use Form 5329 to indicate the correct exception.
You must take your first required minimum distribution for the year in which you reach age 73. However, you can delay taking the first RMD until April 1 of the following year. If you reach age 73 in 2024, you must take your first RMD by April 1, 2025, and the second RMD by Dec. 31, 2025.
Mistake #1: Not Starting Your RMD on Time The rules for RMD starting ages have undergone changes in recent years, leading to confusion among many individuals. In the past, the starting age for RMDs was 70½. However, as of 2023, the starting age stands at 73 and is set to increase to 75 in the future.
IRAs: IRA withdrawals from traditional IRAs and IRA-based plans occur every year once people reach age 73, even if they're still employed. IRA owners who reach age 73 in 2024, however, have until April 1, 2025, to take their first RMD based on their account balance on Dec. 31, 2023, and the second RMD is due by Dec.
For example, imagine a retiree with an IRA worth $500,000 on Dec. 31, 2024. If he or she is beginning to take RMDs in 2025, at age 73, the RMD would be $18,867.92 ($500,000 / 26.5). But if this person has already turned 74 in 2025, the distribution amount would be $19,607.84 ($500,000 / 25.5).
You must take your first required minimum distribution for the year in which you reach age 73. However, you can delay taking the first RMD until April 1 of the following year. If you reach age 73 in 2024, you must take your first RMD by April 1, 2025, and the second RMD by Dec. 31, 2025.
