Course Description
We all know we need to save for the future, but what happens if you contribute more than the annual limit to your retirement or health savings account (HSA)?
What happens if you need to take the money out of an IRA before you reach retirement age, or you take money from a 529 plan and don't spend it on qualified education expenses?
Form 5329 is the tax form used to calculate possible IRS penalties from the situations listed above and possible request a penalty waiver. Form 5329 applies to each individual that might owe a penalty, so for married couples filing jointly, each spouse must complete their form.
This CE/CPE webinar will discuss how to properly prepare Form 5329, Additional Taxes on Qualified Plans, to request a waiver for missed or incorrect required minimum distributions (RMDs), preparing Form 5329 for multiple years for excess contributions to qualified plans, and requesting abatement of penalties for early distributions from IRAs and retirement plans.
A retirement account owner must begin taking required minimum distribution (RMD) amounts from his or her retirement account by the required beginning date and for every subsequent year.
The penalty for a missed or incorrect RMD is among the highest in the tax code at 50%. Excess contributions are subject to a six percent excise tax that continues annually until the overfunded amount is withdrawn.
This CE/CPE tax webinar will help you to understand and learn best practices to avoid these problems.
