L1: RMD – If spouse is the IRA beneficiary, is use of joint lifetime table required?If I am married and my spouse is the designated beneficiary on my IRA, am I required to use the joint lifetime table for determining the factor for the RMD amount or may I use the single table? My spouse and I are approximately the same age.2016-12-31 22:09, By: aw, IP: [99.197.184.207]
L2: RMD – If spouse is the IRA beneficiary, is use of joint lifetime table required?No. Use the single life table – it will always provide a larger distribution. 2016-12-31 22:16, By: Gfw, IP: [216.80.120.234]
