Just got the "what do I do" call today ... appears she confused 2009 holiday on IRA withdrawals with 2010 ...from initial read on the topic, she should:
- Withdraw both 2010 and 2011 amounts prior to end of CY2011
- Complete appropriate IRS forms 1040 and 5329
- Include penalty (50%) in tax payment for 2011
- Include letter explaining the reasonable error rationale for failing to withdraw in 2010 (and, hope IRS is persuaded to return your penalty)
Is this generally accurate - would appreciate any other thoughts!
