Individual Retirement Account (IRA) Gifts

Under the tax law you must take your first required minimum distribution (RMD) for the year in which you turn age 72. In 2022, if you reach age 72 you must take your first RMD (for 2022) by April 1, 2023, with subsequent RMDs on December 31st annually thereafter. As a result of recent changes to the tax law, if you reach the age of 72 on or after January 1, 2023, you are not required to take your first RMD until age 73. You can give any amount up to $100,000 per year from your IRA directly to a qualified charity without having to pay income tax on the money. This is known as an IRA charitable rollover.

Please consult your tax advisor and kindly instruct your retirement account broker to make the check payable to the Archbishop’s Annual Appeal, and mail it to 467 Bloomfield Avenue, Bloomfield, CT 06002. Please call the Appeal Office at (800) 781-2550 with any questions you may have regarding this gift.
