  • What are the disclosures an IRA customer must receive when opening a new plan?
  • What are the new contributions limits for Traditional and Roth IRAs?
  • When can a customer deduct an IRA contribution and how does it affect our IRS reporting?
  • When is the interest really tax-free on a Roth IRA?
  • When do mandatory distributions start from a Traditional IRA?
  • How can the customer move their Traditional IRA to a Roth IRA and what are the tax consequences?”

IRAs Part 4 – Auditing Your IRA Files 2023

For series pricing, click here.

The least favorite part of any auditor’s job is to go through old, musty IRA files to see if the bank is in compliance and has all the customer information it needs. Many times when files are scanned in for imaging purposes, they are not checked first, resulting in a lot of ‘junk’ in the electronic IRA customer files.

This two hour webinar will break down the IRA process in the bank — including expertise and procedural aspects. Knowing what should be retained in your customer files and what can be discarded can help with the clean-up. When mistakes are found in the files, what are the IRS requirements for corrections with respect to IRS reporting?

What You’ll Learn

  • What are the documentation requirements to be included in the customer IRA files?
  • What disclosures must the customer receive when creating an IRA plan with the bank?
  • What happens if there is a deceased beneficiary or no beneficiary listed in the file?
  • Why is a review of the IRS reporting so important before it goes out to the IRS or the customer?
  • How far back can the bank go to correct an IRS reporting form and when is it necessary?
  • What are the 25+ most common mistakes to look for when auditing IRA files?
  • What kind of partial audits are the most crucial?”

IRAs Part 3 – Distributions to IRA Owners and Beneficiaries 2023

For series pricing, click here.

The IRS has increased the required beginning age for IRA owners to begin distributions twice in the last 3 years. Every time this happens, it creates a huge dilemma and opens the door for various interpretations of the new rules – many of which are incorrect. We will address by birth year who is eligible to postpone distributions to the increased ages. Also, what happens if an IRA owner who turned 72 this year mistakenly took an RMD when they were not required to?

And then there are the beneficiaries… The three categories of beneficiaries identified in the SECURE Act of 2020 have different payout options at the death of the owner. The problem is that the IRS has changed their minds 3 times since this act was signed into law and then postponed the implementation of the proposed regulations twice. This also leads to a treasure chest of bad information and interpretation to the general public.

What You’ll Learn

  • Who can wait until age 73 to start RMDs from IRAs?
  • When does the RMD age increase to age 75?
  • How to process ‘mischaracterized’ RMDs that were taken by someone who turned 72 this year?
  • What are the payout options for non-spouse beneficiaries depending on the IRA owner’s RMD status at death?
  • When does a successor beneficiary get their own 10-year payout period?
  • Federal Withholding requirements – W-4R vs. W-4P?”

Who Should Attend?
Anyone who is remotely involved with IRAs and answering client’s questions on the old and new IRA distribution rules — especially to beneficiaries. Customer service reps, financial and estate planners, IRA operations department, tellers, call centers, and frontline personnel would all benefit from this informative Webinar.

IRAs Part 2 – Rollovers and Transfers 2023

For series pricing, click here.

One of the biggest sources of IRA customers getting letters and bills from the IRS is because of the misreporting of rollovers vs. transfers. This problem has existed for over 40 years and it’s not rocket science! The most important aspect of moving money from IRA to IRA or QP to IRA is that both the sending side and the receiving side have to code the transaction pretty much the same. When one bank codes it as a distribution and other bank code it as a transfer credit, the IRS computers explode and send out letters and bills to the customer. Many banks think they can make up their own definition of a rollover vs a transfer, but the IRS is clear in the rules and regulations when the moving of IRA funds is reported to the IRS and when it is not reported.

What You’ll Learn

  • What are the 3 most important questions when moving funds between retirement accounts?
  • How do you determine the type of issuing plan?
  • What happens when a transfer is coded as a rollover or a rollover is coded as a transfer?
  • How do we correct our IRS reporting mistakes?
  • When would the bank ever code a distribution as a rollover debit?
  • What’s the difference between a rollover and a conversion?
  • What are the rules on how many times an IRA can be moved as a rollover in a 12 month period?

Who Should Attend?
Whether you are a rookie or an experienced IRA ‘expert’, this 2-hour webinar will break down the importance of knowing the difference and how to train your personnel regarding what questions to ask when sending and receiving money.

IRAs Part 2 – Rollovers and Transfers 2023
October 5, 2023, 10:00 am CDT
Two of the most misused and abused words in the IRA world are “Rollover” and “Transfer” when moving money from IRA to IRA and from a Qualified Employer Plan to an IRA. While you may think the words are interchangeable, how these movements are reported to the IRS is as different as night and day.

The last three years have brought some of the most significant changes for distributions to IRA owners and beneficiaries as we’ve seen in the last 20 years – including the most recent IRS Notice 2023-54. When owners and beneficiaries do not take their required distribution in a timely manner, it results in IRS penalties. There are easy steps to address these distribution issues.

Digital Banking Issues – What Are the Compliance Requirements?

We are seeing a rapid shift in the way financial institutions interact with their customers and conduct business to a more remote, online delivery model. Not that these capabilities haven’t always been present, but ever since the pandemic, much more business is conducted remotely, and this is a trend we can expect to continue. What are the requirements to keep in mind when conducting business in this fashion?

What challenges exist? For starters, there are Bank Secrecy Act issues when opening accounts and maintaining relationships with customers who are never seen. The rise in electronic transactions mean increased attention to Regulation E compliance, for example, especially when it comes to handling disputes (which are expected to increase in number). The provisions of the E-SIGN Act must be followed to the letter as well. In lending, there is now the capability to originate a loan from application to closing without ever meeting the borrower (and this includes notarization). These are but a few examples of the many compliance issues at play in a remote environment. In this webinar we’ll discuss these many requirements and provide you with a comprehensive grasp of the issues involved.

What You’ll Learn

  • E-SIGN issues and requirements: what can we provide electronically and when?
  • Reg. E issues, including disputes: making sure you understand the rules
  • Identifying customers under BSA and beneficial owner requirements, as well as OFAC
  • Credit card disputes under Reg. Z
  • Handling the loan application and closing process remotely
  • Handling complaints
  • Online communication through email and social media: regulatory guidance
  • Advertising issues: reaching remote customers, including opt-out rights
  • Remote Online Notarization (RON): incorporating this into your process
  • Fair lending issues, including digital redlining
  • Privacy and information security issues

Who Should Attend?
Anyone at the institution that deals with customers in a non-in-person environment, including over the phone and/or electronically. Customer service representatives, loan officers, compliance professionals, auditors, legal staff, and management are but a few of the types of bank employees who would benefit from the information.
