Required Distributions Except in the case of a special needs beneficiary, the assets of the Xxxxxxxxx ESA are required to be distributed to the designated beneficiary within 30 days of the designated beneficiary’s attainment of age 30. The designated beneficiary will be subject to both income tax and an additional 10 percent penalty tax on the portion of the distribution that represents earnings, if the designated beneficiary does not have any qualified education expenses in that year. Any balance remaining in the Xxxxxxxxx ESA upon the death of the designated beneficiary will be distributed within 30 days of the designated beneficiary’s death, unless a death beneficiary is named and the death beneficiary is a qualified family member under age 30. If the death beneficiary is a qualified family member under age 30, that individual will become the designated beneficiary as of the date of death. Qualified family members include the designated beneficiary’s child, grandchild, or xxxxxxxxx, brother, sister, stepbrother, or stepsister, nephew or niece, parents, stepparents, or grandparents, uncle or aunt, spouses of all the family members listed above, cousin, and the designated beneficiary’s spouse. If a qualified family member becomes the designated beneficiary, the custodian, if it so chooses for any reason (e.g., due to limitations of its charter or bylaws), may require a total distribution of the Xxxxxxxxx ESA by December 31 of the year following the year of the original designated beneficiary’s death.
Qualified Reservist Distributions If you are a qualified reservist member called to active duty for more than 179 days or an indefinite period, the payments you take from your IRA during the active duty period are not subject to the 10 percent early distribution penalty tax.
