The Required Minimum Distribution is the minimum amount of money you're required to take out of your retirement plan once you turn 70½. The 1099-R issuer is required to follow RMD rules and regulations, so if you received a distribution and you're at least age 70½, you can be almost certain you received an RMD. Check with your plan administrator if you're still not sure.
