Retirement tax questions

Various news sources have reported that the bill signed into law in late December 2021 extended the deadline for obtaining a CRD, but a careful reading the bill does not seem to support that conclusion.  The news reports appear to be wrong.  The disaster-related provisions appear to explicitly exclude COVID-19 as a disaster for the purpose of this section of the bill, making it apply only to disasters like wildfires and hurricanes.  See Opus 17's reply below for more details.

 

Unless you hear otherwise from the IRS, it seems reasonable to assume that the deadline for obtaining a CRD has passed.
