IRA Rollover: A Gift with Substantial Benefits

IRA Rollover:  A Gift with Substantial Benefits
Mark was a retired attorney with a significant IRA and substantial income from investments. He had made IRA rollover gifts to his favorite charity several times in recent years.

Because Mark was over age 70½, he could give away up to $105,000 directly from his IRA to his favorite charity this year. Mark's gift would qualify for his required minimum distribution amount, reducing his income and taxes.

Mark: Making an IRA rollover gift was an obvious solution to my tax situation. Also, I wanted to help the same charity again this year.

Mark gave the maximum amount, $105,000, for an IRA rollover gift this year. Because of Mark's income level, he enjoyed added tax benefits.

Mark: I hope I can reduce my income every year and help my favorite charity with an IRA rollover gift!
