Under the SECURE act, which was passed by Congress just before Christmas, the new starting age to take Required Minimum Distributions (“RMD’s”) from tax-deferred retirement accounts (exs. an IRA, a 401(k), hereinafter “IRAs” for ease of reading) is now the year after you turn 72, up from 70 1/2. Also, you can continue to contribute to your IRA as long as you like, as long as you are still working.
