Recently, the IRS and Treasury issued Notice 2024-55. This notice provided initial rules for SECURE 2.0 emergency personal expense distributions (“EPEDs”), domestic abuse victim distributions, and repayments into retirement accounts. The Notice also asked for comments on the above and on Section 72(t) in general.
I wrote a comment letter (which you can read here) to the IRS and Treasury obliging that request. The letter addresses EPEDs, repayments into retirement accounts, and the impact of Texas v. Garland on SECURE 2.0. Further, the comment letter requests clarification that Solo 401(k)s of retired solopreneurs qualify for the Rule of 55 exception to the Section 72(t) ten percent early withdrawal penalty.
