Model this with a client
RetirementForge runs RMD, Roth, IRMAA, and Social Security scenarios in a live, compliant client session.
For educational purposes only; not tax or financial advice. RMDs are estimated using the IRS Uniform Lifetime Table (Table III) and SECURE 2.0 start ages (73 for those born 1951–1959, 75 for 1960+). This tool assumes a sole, non-spouse beneficiary or a spouse not more than 10 years younger; a much-younger spouse beneficiary uses the Joint Life Table instead. Confirm current figures with the IRS and consult a qualified advisor.
