What happened
The SECURE 2.0 Act raised the age for Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs) to 73 for individuals born between 1951 and 1959. The Internal Revenue Service rules govern the tax status of conversions between Roth and Traditional IRAs. A Roth IRA, for the original owner, does not have required minimum distributions.

Why it matters
The change creates a tax window between retirement and the start of RMDs, allowing savers to execute Roth conversions. These conversions can be used as a tool to reduce future RMD tax exposure, particularly when RMDs might push total income into a higher tax bracket alongside Social Security.
