The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Form 5310 is a document that must be filed in order to request an exemption from the required minimum distribution rules for qualified retirement plans. The form allows individuals to continue contributing to their retirement accounts even after reaching the age of 70.5 years, which can help them maintain a lower taxable income. There are several eligibility requirements that must be met in order to qualify for this exemption, so it is important to understand the rules before submitting a request. This article will provide an overview of the IRS Form 5310 and explain who is eligible to file it.
