Inheriting an IRA or a trust interest comes with deadlines, and the ten-year rule for inherited IRAs means timing the withdrawals matters. We map what you received, when it has to come out and how to spread the tax.
We work alongside trustees and estate attorneys and do not act as trustee ourselves. There is no rush to invest an inheritance, and we often suggest holding it in cash while you decide what you want it to do.
What is included
- Inherited IRA ten-year withdrawal planning
- Coordination with trustees and estate attorneys
- Step-up in basis review on inherited property
- Gifting and next-generation planning
Common questions
Do I have to decide anything right away?
Usually not. A few deadlines apply, like disclaiming an inheritance within nine months, and we flag those at the first meeting.
Can you speak with my siblings too?
Yes, with everyone's permission. Each of you keeps a separate relationship and separate accounts.
