topic How do I inform the IRS to look on the 1040 of beneficiary to satisfy RMD for the deceased? in Retirement tax questions https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/retirement/discussion/how-do-i-inform-the-irs-to-look-on-the-1040-of-beneficiary-to-satisfy-rmd-for-the-deceased/01/666074#M63437 <P>Thank you, since the IRS does&nbsp;know who the&nbsp;beneficiaries are, it appears there is&nbsp;no way to avoid the&nbsp;notice. So I just wait&nbsp;for the letter to come&nbsp;then tell&nbsp;the IRS to look&nbsp;on the 1040 of the beneficiaries for the deceased RMD. Thank you for the response. &nbsp;<BR /></P> Thu, 06 Jun 2019 09:59:35 GMT gobttax 2019-06-06T09:59:35Z How do I inform the IRS to look on the 1040 of beneficiary to satisfy RMD for the deceased? https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/retirement/discussion/how-do-i-inform-the-irs-to-look-on-the-1040-of-beneficiary-to-satisfy-rmd-for-the-deceased/01/666074#M63437 <P>Thank you, since the IRS does&nbsp;know who the&nbsp;beneficiaries are, it appears there is&nbsp;no way to avoid the&nbsp;notice.
