IRA Contributions

The IRA Charitable Rollover was signed into law in December 2015 and is now permanent, allowing you to plan your charitable giving and providing a method to support your Reno Phil.

The charitable IRA distribution allows taxpayers who are 72 years or older to make tax-free distributions of up to $100,000 per year from a Traditional IRA or Roth IRA (other retirement plans do not apply) directly to the charity.
