IRA Basic Issues - All Day Streaming

There are very few products at the financial institutions that bring on a feeling of insecurity more than the mention of three letters: I-R-A. What are they? How do we open them? What forms do we use? What if they ask us questions we can't answer?

  • A review of the top 20 terms of IRAs you will hear over and over again
  • What forms are used to establish a new IRA Plan vs. what forms to use for different transactions for existing IRA clients?

  • What is the difference between a Qualified Plan to IRA Rollover vs. an IRA to IRA Rollover?
  • When is an IRA to IRA movement considered a Transfer and not a Rollover?
  • What distribution codes do we use for pre-59.5 penalty exceptions?
  • What IRA owners are affected by the increase in RMD age from 72 to 73?
  • How do the three new categories of beneficiaries affect payout options?
