FAQ
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.
If you wish to withdraw your earnings from a Roth IRA without paying taxes, you must be 59½ and must have held the Roth IRA for at least five years. Exceptions to these requirements include: Becoming disabled and needing the funds to live on. Needing Roth funds of up to $10,000 to buy your first home.
You are eligible to make withdrawals without penalties or fees from a traditional IRA at age 59½, but you can also wait until you are older. For traditional IRAs you must begin taking withdrawals, or Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs), starting at age 73, (or 72 if you were born before July 1, 1949).

A Roth IRA allows you to withdraw your contributions at any time—for any reason—without penalty or taxes. For example: If you contributed $12,000 over 2 years and your Roth IRA has grown to $13,200, you can take out the original $12,000 without taxes and penalties.
Taking Distributions at the Wrong Time One of the most common and most easily avoided retirement planning mistakes is not taking an RMD on time. You must take your first required minimum distribution no later than April 1 following the calendar year in which you turn 73.
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.
Age 59½ and over: No Traditional IRA withdrawal restrictions You can keep taking advantage of tax-deferred contributions regardless of your age as long as you have earned income. But you will be required to start taking required minimum distributions (RMDs) for the year you turn age 73.
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.
