Tax eAlert: IRA Charitable Rollover Restored

The American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 (passed in the early morning hours of 2013) retroactively restored tax-free distributions from individual retirement plans to charities for 2012, and extended the benefit through 2013.

Because 2012 has already passed, a special rule permits distributions taken in 2012 to be transferred to charities for a limited period in 2013. Another special rule permits certain distributions made in 2013 as being deemed made on December 31, 2012.
