Retirement tax questions

Hi Dianne:

 

Thanks for your response,

I have a question regarding your input. Usually, I always took the RMD and instructed a brokerage to pay federal tax and state tax without any retaining amount with me. This time due to this missing action, I am owing federal tax and state tax without adding that missing RMD in the 2025 tax return. Now, if I add that missing RMD to the 2025 return, the amount I owe will double up of what I am currently owing at this point. Does it make sense? 

Appreciate your help.
