Was the owner of the IRA (the deceased person) born before July 1, 1947?
I do not believe that a QCD can be made from an inherited IRA if the owner of that IRA would have been prohibited from doing so if still alive because the age requirement has not been met even though the benificuary is over 70 1/2.
[ @dmertz - is that correct]
