Q: The company holding my client's SIMPLE IRA said that he cannot continue to contribute to the SIMPLE IRA after age 70½, and that he must take RMDs. Are both of those statements true?
A: It is true that your client must take RMDs at age 70½, even if he still is working; however, he CAN continue to contribute to the SIMPLE IRA (unlike if this was a traditional IRA.). Tell the company to check IRS Publication 590 for accurate information!
