Under the new rule, which commenced in 1997, distributions will not need to be made until April 1 of the year following the later of the year the employee attains age 70 1/2, or the year the employee retires. Five-percent owners and IRA holders are still subject to the minimum distribution rule, that is, they will need to start receiving distributions by April 1 of the year following attaining age 70 1/2 even if they are still working. Minimum distributions from tax-qualified retirement plans will not be required for workers over age 70 1/2. Benefits for those workers still working after age 70 1/2 must be actuarially adjusted for those who are participating in defined benefit plans. |
