1 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:00:06.192 --> 00:00:18.569
Greetings! My name is Charles Cummings. I'm a Senior Level Employee Education Consultant with PNC, and today, we're going to be talking about money in, money out: contributions, rollovers, and distributions.
2 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:00:18.569 --> 00:00:29.700
PNC conducts these webinars as a way to provide additional education on various topics. Here in PNC Retirement Solutions, retirement plans are our expertise.
3 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:00:29.700 --> 00:00:35.100
It's what we work with day in and day out. So, it's a topic we are very passionate about.
4 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:00:35.100 --> 00:00:47.160
Most times our webinar topics are centered specifically around retirement so that we can continue to bring you important and quality education to help you manage your retirement account.
5 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:00:47.160 --> 00:00:58.920
So, let's get started. Money is about a lot more than paper or coins. It's about value and understanding how money fits into our lives.
6 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:00:58.920 --> 00:01:05.580
And it's never too early, or too late to start planning, saving, and putting smart financial choices into action.
7 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:01:05.580 --> 00:01:09.510
That said, let's take a look at some important financial matters that
8 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:01:09.510 --> 00:01:12.690
people may need to be thinking about
9 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:01:12.690 --> 00:01:18.360
in regard to saving for retirement. Today's agenda is as follows:
10 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:01:18.360 --> 00:01:27.330
In Section 1, we want to talk about contributions, the varying types of contributions, and how you can contribute to your retirement plan. In Section 2,
11 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:01:27.330 --> 00:01:30.600
we're going to discuss distributions and rollovers.
12 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:01:30.600 --> 00:01:38.820
Again, there are varying types of distributions as well as different types of rollovers and we'll discuss what they are in Section 2.
13 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:01:38.820 --> 00:01:45.150
In Section 3, we want to discuss a type of distribution, which is the Required Minimum Distribution.
14 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:01:45.150 --> 00:01:52.050
And then Section 4, we'll wrap things up with a summary of everything we've talked about during the course of this webinar.
15 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:01:56.340 --> 00:02:00.450
We'll start by discussing the employee contribution limits for
16 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:02:00.450 --> 00:02:14.790
2023 and 2024. The key limits for 2023 within 401(k) and 403(b) elective deferrals for employees under the age of 50 was $22,500.
17 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:02:14.790 --> 00:02:22.650
In 2024, that amount will increase slightly by $500 to $23,000.
18 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:02:22.650 --> 00:02:36.420
Catch-up Contributions are an additional contribution amount allowed for participants that are 50 years of age or older. In 2023, the Catch-up Contribution amount was $7,500
19 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:02:36.420 --> 00:02:43.740
and that remains the same for 2024, $7,500.
20 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:02:43.740 --> 00:02:48.180
There's generally two ways that employees can contribute to their retirement plans:
21 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:02:48.180 --> 00:03:00.060
traditional pre-tax contributions or Roth and/or Roth contributions. We asked that you check your Summary Plan Document to see if both contribution options are available in your plan.
22 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:03:00.060 --> 00:03:06.240
Pre-tax contributions, which means the money you contribute
23 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:03:06.240 --> 00:03:16.230
is pre-taxed so therefore it goes into the account before federal and most state taxes are taken out, so you pay less taxes today.
24 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:03:16.230 --> 00:03:20.400
Your taxes are deferred until you start withdrawing from your account.
25 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:03:20.400 --> 00:03:27.300
With Roth contributions the money you contribute will be taxed at your current tax rate. However,
26 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:03:27.300 --> 00:03:39.660
You pay no taxes on qualified distributions. A qualified distribution may be taken if you are at least 59 and a 1/2 years of age, and the account has been open for at least 5 years.
27 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:03:46.650 --> 00:04:06.650
With again the contribution limit for 2024 is going to be $23,000 so on this slide we want to talk about how you can max out your contributions to get the most bang for your buck when contributing to your workplace retirement plan. In order to contribute the maximum amount for 2024 of $23,000,
28 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:04:06.650 --> 00:04:14.910
a participant would have to make a monthly contribution, on average, of $1,917.
29 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:04:14.910 --> 00:04:18.960
In order for individuals that are 50
30 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:04:18.960 --> 00:04:24.060
and older to max out their contributions in 2024,
31 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:04:24.060 --> 00:04:29.939
you would be able to max out an amount of at $30,500.
32 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:04:29.939 --> 00:04:40.769
So, therefore, your monthly contribution would be $2,542 in order to max out, if you were age 50 or older.
33 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:04:44.519 --> 00:04:47.939
Contributions to the plan will come directly from your paycheck.
34 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:04:47.939 --> 00:04:52.469
You decide how much to contribute and can change your contribution amounts
35 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:04:52.469 --> 00:04:57.869
either through your Human Resources Department, or usually through your Recordkeeper's website.
36 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:04:57.869 --> 00:05:04.259
Here are a few examples of what it looks like based on your annual compensation
37 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:05:04.259 --> 00:05:07.349
if you were to make contributions to your
38 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:05:07.349 --> 00:05:13.889
workplace retirement plan. We'll use $50,000 as the general example.
39 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:05:13.889 --> 00:05:25.289
So, if you were earning $50,000 a year, and you were contributing 2% of your salary, your contributions would be $19.23.
40 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:05:25.289 --> 00:05:32.699
If you were to contribute 6% using that same $50,000 annual compensation,
41 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:05:32.699 --> 00:05:42.719
your contribution amount would be $57.69. So, I won't read each of them, but you can see based on the varying
42 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:05:42.719 --> 00:05:47.549
annual compensation amounts and the varying contribution percentages,
43 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:05:47.549 --> 00:05:52.019
how it would impact your take home pay if you were to contribute
44 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:05:52.019 --> 00:05:57.839
to your workplace retirement plan.
45 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:06:01.739 --> 00:06:11.519
On average, most financial professionals state that we should be aiming for anywhere between 10% to 15%
46 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:06:11.519 --> 00:06:26.729
of our compensation towards our workplace retirement plan, in order to reach our retirement savings goals. And this can be accomplished if, in fact, you can't do it right away by utilizing the 1% method.
47 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:06:26.729 --> 00:06:35.789
Together with other steps, this can help achieve the goal of maintaining your current lifestyle in retirement. While 15% may seem like a lot,
48 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:06:35.789 --> 00:06:51.809
if you have a 401(k) or other workplace retirement account with an employer match or Profit Sharing contribution, that employer match or Profit Sharing counts towards your annual goal of 15% contribution to your retirement plan.
49 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:06:57.449 --> 00:07:01.019
Now, let's move on to discuss the topics of rollovers.
50 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:07:01.019 --> 00:07:21.019
Depending on your retirement plan, rollovers may be accepted either immediately or once eligible for the plan. Depending on the type of rollover you execute, rollovers can maintain the tax deferral status on your investments. Additionally, the IRS has a rollover chart, as you can see here on the slide that will help with understanding what
51 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:07:21.019 --> 00:07:31.019
accounts can be rolled over. You can find the chart by logging on and going to https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-tege/rollover_chart.pdf.
52 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:07:31.019 --> 00:07:47.159
https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-tege/rollover_chart.pdf
53 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:07:47.159 --> 00:07:53.969
And again, you can find that at the bottom of this slide, the bottom left-hand side of the slide.
54 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:07:59.819 --> 00:08:03.419
Your employer may make contributions to your retirement plan, as well.
55 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:08:03.419 --> 00:08:10.709
So, again, we that you check with your Human Resources Department to see if your company has a contribution matching formula.
56 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:08:10.709 --> 00:08:15.419
Remember, we talked on slide 8 about the 1% method?
57 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:08:15.419 --> 00:08:33.419
Well, any employer match contributions can help achieve the desired 15% contribution rate that most financial professionals feel we should be contributing to our workplace retirement plan by the age of 30 to 35.
58 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:08:33.419 --> 00:08:39.569
Now, let's discuss distributions and rollovers in more detail.
59 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:08:39.569 --> 00:08:43.019
Distributions are also referred to as withdrawals.
60 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:08:43.019 --> 00:09:03.019
That said, please note, most of the distribution options we will discuss in this presentation are specific to define the contribution plans, which are 401(k) and 403(b) plans. Individual Retirement Accounts, such as IRAs can have different rules restrictions for distributions.
61 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:09:03.019 --> 00:09:09.989
Therefore, we ask that you contact your IRA provider for specific rules on your IRA assets.
62 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:09:09.989 --> 00:09:13.409
And finally,
63 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:09:13.409 --> 00:09:23.849
distributions do not equal rollovers. Again, we will discuss what rollovers are and you'll see the distinction between the two.
64 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:09:23.849 --> 00:09:35.549
Although, we don't advocate for distributions from your retirement plan, other than at retirement, there are reasons why one would take a distribution from their retirement plan. Some of those reasons are as follows:
65 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:09:35.549 --> 00:09:41.129
For retirement, which is the entire purpose of the, the sole purpose of the retirement plan account.
66 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:09:41.129 --> 00:09:46.799
Death or disability. You are permitted to take distributions from your
67 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:09:46.799 --> 00:09:52.979
retirement plan in the event that you experience a death or a disability.
68 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:09:52.979 --> 00:09:58.019
Severance from employment. If you decide to leave your current employer,
69 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:09:58.019 --> 00:10:16.709
you can withdraw the assets from your workplace retirement plan and take them as a full distribution for yourself. And if you decide to do that, there may be that may cause a taxable event or if you separate from your existing or current employer and roll the money over to a new
70 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:10:16.709 --> 00:10:21.089
employer's account that's an option, as well.
71 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:10:21.089 --> 00:10:38.789
The plan terminates with no successor plan. If the plan is terminating, then you do have the right to remove your money and move it into either an Individual Retirement Account, take it as the distribution for yourself, which again may cause a taxable event or roll it into a new employer's plan.
72 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:10:38.789 --> 00:10:50.279
Once you reach age 59 and a 1/2. Once you reach age, 59 and a 1/2, the IRS allows you the opportunity to take distributions from your workplace retirement plan.
73 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:10:50.279 --> 00:10:53.399
If you're contributing with traditional pre-tax
74 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:10:53.399 --> 00:11:06.959
and/or Roth contributions, there still may be tax ramifications involved. If you take a distribution after reaching age 59 and a 1/2; however, there will no longer be a penalty associated for traditional pre-tax
75 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:11:06.959 --> 00:11:10.229
distributions once you reach the age 59 and a 1/2.
76 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:11:10.229 --> 00:11:23.519
And then some plans offer the opportunity to take a distribution if you experience a hardship situation. Some examples of hardship may be to prevent foreclosure or eviction
77 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:11:23.519 --> 00:11:41.579
from your primary residence. Your employer's plan will determine when distributions would be allowed. So again, we ask you to refer to your Summary Plan Description or Summary Plan Document located on your Recordkeeper's website.
78 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:11:41.579 --> 00:11:45.719
If you were opting to rollover to a new employer's plan,
79 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:11:45.719 --> 00:11:59.399
your assets will retain their tax deferral status provided you are directly rolling from the old employer to the new employer, and not taking any portion of that money for personal reasons.
80 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:11:59.399 --> 00:12:13.559
Rolling over to an Individual Retirement Plan, or an IRA, you would still retain your tax deferral status, again, as long as you're not taking any of that money as a personal distribution, if you are directly rolling it over
81 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:12:13.559 --> 00:12:20.609
from your current employer's plan, or former employer's plan into an Individual Retirement Plan.
82 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:12:20.609 --> 00:12:29.249
Cash distributions, meaning if, in fact, you have, a portion or all of the money sent directly to you,
83 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:12:29.249 --> 00:12:41.969
it would be a taxable event, because at that point, you're not rolling it over. You're taking it as a withdrawal or distribution. So, therefore, you would pay taxes on those assets at your current tax rate.
84 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:12:49.019 --> 00:12:52.769
Now, we're going to discuss some benefits of rolling over to a new employer's plan.
85 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:12:52.769 --> 00:13:01.169
So, if you were transferring assets from one tax advantage account to another tax advantage account, this allows you the ability to consolidate.
86 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:13:01.169 --> 00:13:21.169
There are no tax ramifications generally with that type of rollover. The potential for increased or different investment elections are selections are another benefit. You can contribute to build assets through continued contributions when you rollover from a former employer to
87 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:13:21.169 --> 00:13:28.139
a new employer, your assets are held in trust, which generally provides protection from creditors.
88 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:13:28.139 --> 00:13:48.139
So, these are some of the benefits when you move your assets from a former employer into a new employer plan. So now, let's explore what happens if you were to rollover your former employer assets into an Individual Retirement Plan, or an IRA. Some of those benefits include, again, no immediate tax obligation or withdrawal
89 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:13:48.139 --> 00:13:52.679
penalties with a direct rollover as long as it's completed within 60 days.
90 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:13:52.679 --> 00:14:04.109
Larger selection and full control over investment choices. So, you generally have exposure to a larger selection of investment choices within the IRA plan.
91 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:14:04.109 --> 00:14:12.239
You have the ability to consolidate retirement assets, which makes them easier to track because they're all consolidated into one place.
92 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:14:12.239 --> 00:14:21.809
You have the potential to convert traditional rollover IRA assets to Roth IRA assets. Now, understand when you do
93 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:14:21.809 --> 00:14:29.549
convert those traditional assets, IRA assets, to rollover assets to a Roth,
94 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:14:29.549 --> 00:14:35.489
you will pay taxes on the traditional assets based on your current tax rate
95 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:14:35.489 --> 00:14:45.569
during the conversion process. Another benefit is you have a potential to roll over to a new employer's plan at a later date provided you
96 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:14:45.569 --> 00:14:51.869
did not mix those assets with existing IRA assets.
97 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:14:57.299 --> 00:15:01.409
We talked about rolling over your assets from a former employer's plan to both
98 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:15:01.409 --> 00:15:05.279
an IRA and a new employer's plan. So, now let's discuss
99 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:15:05.279 --> 00:15:25.279
things you should consider before doing either of those. You should consider if there are any applicable fees for both plans. That's usually not the case nowadays, but there was a time where there may have cost you a fee, or you may have been charged a
100 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:15:25.279 --> 00:15:31.979
fee to roll over assets from a former employer's plan out of a former employer's plan into
101 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:15:31.979 --> 00:15:37.859
either an Individual Retirement Account, or Plan, or a Workplace Retirement Plan.
102 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:15:37.859 --> 00:15:40.949
The investment options.
103 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:15:40.949 --> 00:15:48.299
If the investment options within your former employer's plan are performing extremely well,
104 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:15:48.299 --> 00:15:58.679
you may not want to move those assets from the former employer's plan into your new employer's plan, or into an Individual Retirement Account. I can give you a quick example.
105 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:15:58.679 --> 00:16:18.679
Prior to coming to PNC, I worked for another institution, and the previous institution I work at, we had some mutual funds within our 401(k) Plan that were performing like gangbusters. And they were close to any new investors. So, therefore, I didn't want to lose my investment in those
106 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:16:18.679 --> 00:16:38.679
funds. So, therefore, I did not roll that money over to my PNC 401(k) Plan. I established an Individual Retirement Plan with my former employer so that I can maintain my investment in those mutual funds. So, that's just an example: if the investment offerings are performing extremely well it may not be the best thing to move it from
107 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:16:38.679 --> 00:16:43.019
the former employer into a new employer or an Individual Retirement Plan.
108 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:16:43.019 --> 00:16:53.009
Technology. Technology can pose a potential challenge in the event that your new employer's plan may not be as
109 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:16:53.009 --> 00:17:10.619
technologically savvy in terms of the Recordkeeper that manages those assets as your former employer's plan. So that could be a hindrance and may cause you not to want to move those assets. And then the opportunity of managing multiple accounts or consolidating may not
110 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:17:10.619 --> 00:17:30.619
interest you or it may interest you. If it does interest you then obviously rolling it over so you can consolidate and have everything in one place as we've mentioned in the previous slide could be very helpful. Some individuals like to earmark certain money for different things. So, therefore, they want they may want to keep them separate. So, again, these are just things you may want to give consideration
111 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:17:30.619 --> 00:17:40.499
to when you are looking to potentially move assets from a former employer's plan into either a new employer's plan or
112 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:17:40.499 --> 00:17:43.619
into an Individual Retirement Plan.
113 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:17:43.619 --> 00:17:47.429
So, back on the topic of cashing out
114 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:17:47.429 --> 00:17:52.619
your assets from your former employer's plan.
115 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:17:52.619 --> 00:17:56.699
In essence, cashing out means taking a total withdrawal from your account.
116 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:17:56.699 --> 00:18:11.429
The cash out consequences we're about to mention, may, or may not apply to you. Therefore, we again ask that you please refer to your Summary Plan Document before making any of those decisions.
117 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:18:11.429 --> 00:18:21.749
So, if you were to cash out, the withdrawal of your investments and money will be provided to you. Again, a cash out means a total liquidation of your account.
118 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:18:21.749 --> 00:18:41.749
Cashing out also could represent a taxable event, because you are receiving those assets and not rolling them over. Therefore, you may have to pay taxes on those assets and depending on if you're under the age of 59 and a 1/2, you may potentially also pay a penalty. The Rule of 55: no early withdrawal penalty,
119 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:18:41.749 --> 00:18:46.379
if you are over age 55 and withdrawal at your
120 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:18:46.379 --> 00:18:59.429
current job. That's an example. Something that one should consider when considering a cash out distributions from a former retirement plan does not follow the rule of 55.
121 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:18:59.429 --> 00:19:08.279
You have to be at least 59 and a 1/2 to receive those distributions or 10% penalty will be imposed, as I mentioned in the previous bullet point.
122 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:19:08.279 --> 00:19:13.739
But always remember, taking a distribution could push you to a higher tax bracket for the year
123 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:19:13.739 --> 00:19:22.169
and based on that money that's withdrawn so, therefore you'd pay more taxes potentially, in that same year if you were
124 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:19:22.169 --> 00:19:28.469
to cash out from your former employer's plan.
125 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:19:28.469 --> 00:19:43.619
So, we've talked about distributions we talked about contributions, we talked about distributions, we talked about rollovers and varying types of distributions and now, in Section 3, we want to discuss another type of distribution, which is the Required Minimum Distribution.
126 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:19:49.289 --> 00:19:57.629
What is a Required Minimum Distribution? Required Minimum Distribution is the minimum amount you must withdraw
127 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:19:57.629 --> 00:20:02.939
from your retirement accounts each year.
128 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:20:02.939 --> 00:20:19.169
You can find more information about Required Minimum Distributions, or "RMD's" as you can see that acronym there on the screen by going to: https://www.irs.gov/retirement-plans/retirement-plan-and-ira-required-minimum-distributions-faqs
129 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:20:19.169 --> 00:20:23.669
https://www.irs.gov/retirement-plans/retirement-plan-and-ira-required-minimum-distributions-faqs
130 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:20:23.669 --> 00:20:30.179
https://www.irs.gov/retirement-plans/retirement-plan-and-ira-required-minimum-distributions-faqs
131 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:20:30.179 --> 00:20:35.669
https://www.irs.gov/retirement-plans/retirement-plan-and-ira-required-minimum-distributions-faqs
132 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:20:35.669 --> 00:20:41.039
And you can find as much information as you would like about what Required Minimum Distributions are
133 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:20:41.039 --> 00:20:48.389
and when you would need to take them. And we'll discuss that a little more later in the presentation, as well.
134 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:20:48.389 --> 00:20:52.229
Why do you have to take a Required Minimum Distribution from your account?
135 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:20:52.229 --> 00:20:59.759
Well, the primary purpose of the RMD rules is to ensure that people do not continue to defer taxation.
136 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:20:59.759 --> 00:21:03.389
When you are contributing to your workplace retirement account,
137 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:21:03.389 --> 00:21:10.529
if you're contributing with traditional pre-tax dollars, you are delaying
138 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:21:10.529 --> 00:21:15.389
or deferring taxation on those assets; therefore, the government doesn't get their cut.
139 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:21:15.389 --> 00:21:24.179
So, the reason why RMDs were established is to end that delay so that they can then utilize some of those
140 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:21:24.179 --> 00:21:28.169
tax assets for other purposes.
141 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:21:31.919 --> 00:21:37.169
Now, let's discuss which accounts do you need to take Required Minimum Distributions from.
142 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:21:37.169 --> 00:21:46.619
Traditional 401(k) accounts. They do require, they do have RMD requirements.
143 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:21:46.619 --> 00:21:50.939
Roth 401(k) accounts do not have RMD requirements.
144 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:21:50.939 --> 00:22:10.109
Traditional IRA accounts do have RMD requirements. Roth IRAs do not. 403(b) Plans, 457 Plans, SEP & Simple IRA's and Profit Sharing Plans, all have Required Minimum Distribution requirements.
145 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:22:10.109 --> 00:22:27.059
This is not a complete list so if you would like the complete list of accounts, please visit www.irs.gov for a complete list of rules and regulations regarding Required Minimum Distributions.
146 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:22:27.059 --> 00:22:33.059
Now, we'll discuss when to take and what happens when you take a Required Minimum Distribution.
147 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:22:33.059 --> 00:22:46.889
You must take your first, Required Minimum Distribution for the year in which you reach age 73; however, you can delay taking the first Required Minimum Distribution until April 1st of the following year.
148 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:22:46.889 --> 00:22:51.059
What happens if a person does not take an RMD
149 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:22:51.059 --> 00:22:54.059
by the required deadline?
150 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:22:54.059 --> 00:23:03.299
If an account owner fails to withdraw the full amount of the RMD by the due date, the amount not withdrawn is subject to a 25% excise tax;
151 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:23:03.299 --> 00:23:09.209
possibly 10% if the RMD is corrected in a timely manner.
152 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:23:09.209 --> 00:23:13.679
You will be penalized if, in fact, you do miss
153 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:23:13.679 --> 00:23:29.549
your Required Minimum Distribution deadline, so please pay close attention. If you are still working at age 72, 73, understand that by 73 you are to begin taking Required Minimum Distributions.
154 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424)00:23:34.949 --> 00:23:39.209
Now, we'll discuss how was the amount calculated for RMD and by whom.
155 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:23:39.209 --> 00:23:42.989
So, what happens if I'm still working at age 73?
156 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:23:42.989 --> 00:24:02.879
Do I still need to take a Required Minimum Distribution? You can delay, as I stated before, you can delay taking your Requirement Minimum Distribution until the year you retire, unless you are a 5% owner of the business that sponsors the plan. 5% owners - if you are 5% owner or more
157 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:24:02.879 --> 00:24:13.979
of a business sponsoring the plan, then you must begin receiving distributions by April 1st of the year after the calendar year in which you reach the age of 73.
158 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:24:20.849 --> 00:24:26.249
Now, who calculates the amount of the Required Minimum Distribution?
159 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:24:32.849 --> 00:24:42.209
Although the IRA custodian or retirement plan administrator may calculate the RMD, the account owner is ultimately responsible for taking the correct RMD amount.
160 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:24:42.209 --> 00:24:56.939
Let me repeat that, although the IRA custodian or retirement plan administrator may calculate the RMD, the account owner is ultimately responsible for taking the correct RMD amount.
161 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:24:56.939 --> 00:25:01.649
How is the amount of the RMD calculated?
162 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:25:01.649 --> 00:25:19.739
The Required Minimum Distribution is generally calculated for each account by dividing the prior year, December 31st, balance of that IRA, or retirement plan account by life expectancy factor that the IRS publishes. Please again refer to:
163 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:25:19.739 --> 00:25:32.609
www.irs.gov for more information regarding that life expectancy calculator and how to find out more about how the Required Minimum Distributions are calculated.
164 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:25:42.689 --> 00:25:47.639
Let's review some additional information regarding Required Minimum Distributions.
165 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:25:47.639 --> 00:25:51.089
May I withdraw more than the RMD requires? Yes.
166 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:25:51.089 --> 00:26:07.559
May I take more than one withdrawal in a year to meet my RMD? You may withdraw your annual Required Minimum Distribution in any number of distributions throughout the year, as long as you withdraw the total annual minimum amount
167 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:26:07.559 --> 00:26:13.919
by December 31st, or by April 1st, if it is your first RMD.
168 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:26:13.919 --> 00:26:21.209
How should I take my RMDs if I have multiple accounts?
169 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:26:21.209 --> 00:26:31.499
If you have more than one defined contribution plan, you must satisfy your RMDs separately for each plan and withdraw that amount from the plan.
170 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:26:31.499 --> 00:26:35.429
How are Required Minimum Distributions taxed?
171 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:26:35.429 --> 00:26:46.049
The account owner is taxed at his or her income rate on the amount of the withdrawn Required Minimum Distribution. However,
172 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:26:46.049 --> 00:26:54.629
to the extent the RMD is a return of basis or is a qualified distribution from a Roth account,
173 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:26:54.629 --> 00:27:09.569
it is tax free. Can RMD amounts be rolled over into another tax deferred account? No.
174 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:27:09.569 --> 00:27:18.149
Can a distribution in excess of the RMD for one year be applied to the of the future? No.
175 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:27:18.149 --> 00:27:22.919
In summary,
176 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:27:22.919 --> 00:27:28.319
here are a few things to consider before moving your money.
177 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:27:28.319 --> 00:27:31.499
Remember the goal of this account is for retirement.
178 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:27:31.499 --> 00:27:36.779
So, again, we're not advocates of taking withdrawals or distributions. However,
179 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:27:36.779 --> 00:27:52.289
sometimes life happens and you are required, or you may need the ability to take money from the retirement plan. So therefore, distributions are allowed, depending on certain criteria that you have to meet.
180 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:27:52.289 --> 00:28:02.459
You have to think about the tax deferred status, which allows you to put off taxes until you start receiving the money. And if, in fact, you're still
181 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:28:02.459 --> 00:28:15.809
a little confused about what some of your options are we ask that you please speak with a professional, a tax advisor, or a financial advisor before making any of those decisions regarding distributions
182 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:28:15.809 --> 00:28:20.339
or Required Minimum Distributions and/or rollovers to/
183 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:28:20.339 --> 00:28:28.289
from a former employer's account to either a new employer's account or an Individual Retirement Plan.
184 "PNC Employee Education" (243047424) 00:28:28.289 --> 00:28:34.349
So that concludes our, "Money in. Money out: It's your Retirement" presentation, and I thank you for attending.
