This is the first time I have heard RMD. I am an 85 year old federal retiree, would that be in the tax that is taken out before I get my money?

Sorry, that is all I needed.

If you get a monthly pension income your RMD should be satisfied.

If you are receiving pension/retirement income reported on a Form 1099-R, the entire payment is considered an RMD.

No, the money that you have taken out is for taxes and possibly health care. 

 If you are only getting a federal pension for retirement income, and don't have any IRA's (Individual Retirement Accounts), then you would not be required to take a RMD (Required Minimum Distribution).
