Hi, PJ1952,
We may need a bit more info to fully answer your question, and, if I didn't guess the topic correctly, you may want to post another question.
I am assuming you are asking about a required minimum distribution, which, if you are asking now, makes me think you are around age 72. This article does a really good job of addressing that topic. Typically, the financial institution holding your IRA will calculate the RMD for you, if you ask them to. It's calculated by considering your life expectancy using required tables. If you feel like geeking out on your own instead, you can try this IRS website tool. I'm personally a fan of letting the experts do it!
Please give a thumbs up to cheer below if this answer helps!
Best,
Karen
