Bailout Includes IRA Charitable Rollover
Categories
The Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (H.R. 1424) passed the House yesterday, and was quickly signed by President Bush. The law includes an extension of the IRA Charitable Rollover, which allows individuals age 70 and older to transfer up to $100,000 per year to public charities, tax-free. It is in effect for 2008 and 2009.
