If you take your deferred compensation payments over a period of 10 years or more, those payments will be taxed in the state where you reside, rather than in the state in which you earned the compensation, possibly reducing your state income taxes.

Traditional individual retirement accounts (IRAs) and 401(k)s are examples of qualified deferred compensation. With these plans, employees contribute pretax dollars via payroll deductions to their retirement savings account. The total contributions cannot exceed the prescribed IRS annual limit.

Generally, a designated beneficiary is required to liquidate the account by the end of the 10th year following the year of death of the IRA owner (this is known as the 10-year rule). An RMD may be required in years 1-9 when the decedent had already begun taking RMDs.
