The SECURE Act (Setting Every Community Up for Retirement Enhancement) was passed on December 17, 2019 and became effective January 1, 2020. Since December 17, 2019, practitioners have been patiently watching and waiting for proposed regulations to help us figure out how the SECURE Act practically affects our clients. We had more questions than answers about the meaning of some of the provisions of SECURE. We anticipated proposed regulations in September 2021. September came and went with no proposed regulations. Then, on February 23, 2022 ..….SURPRISE!......The IRS issued the proposed regulations. We also now have the possibility of SECURE 2.0. This program will cover the proposed regulations and the major points of the SECURE 2.0 legislation currently in Congress.
