CHARITABLE GIVING

The IRA Charitable rollover allows individuals age 70 ½ and older to make direct transfers up to $100,000 per year to 501©3 charities without having to pay federal income tax on the transfers. The transfer qualifies as your minimum required distribution after age 70 ½ . Direct rollovers are not counted as income for federal tax purposes. State tax laws may differ so as always consult your tax advisor.
