IRA withdrawals cannot satisfy 401(k) RMDs. Each 401(k) requires its own separate distribution, no matter how much you pull from the IRA.
Missing a 401(k) RMD triggers a 25% excise tax, but filing Form 5329 within two years cuts that penalty to 10%.
Rolling old 401(k)s into a single traditional IRA via direct trustee-to-trustee transfer reduces multiple RMD calculations to one annual withdrawal.

At age 73, retirement savers face a firm deadline set by the IRS. That is when Required Minimum Distributions begin under the SECURE 2.0 Act, and the IRS begins expecting a slice of the pre-tax money that has been growing untouched for decades. The mechanics look simple on paper: calculate the amount, take the withdrawal, and report it on the tax return. Real accounts complicate that picture, and one woman's story shows why.
