In the past, I have always processed our RMD withdrawals as one lump sum in Q4 with all of our taxes withheld from the distribution. In addition to the 1 time RMD, we receive monthly SS and annuity income with $0 taxes withheld from those income streams. My CPA as well as well as posters here have confirmed that this satisfies the taxing authorities with respect to timely tax payments.
My planned change this year is to take about 1/2 of our RMDs in January with NO taxes withheld. The balance will be distributed in Q4 will ALL of our 2021 estimated taxes withheld. Will this still satisfy the taxing authorities with respect to timely tax payments? Thanks much for your insight.
