An IRA of a deceased owner, who had not taken RMD in 2021 prior to death, has 5 non-spouse beneficiaries, one of whom is within 10 years of the owner's age. The beneficiaries need to know: 1. If each beneficiary has to take an RMD this year, and if so, do they each have to take 20% of the original owner's RMD? 2. Is the older beneficiary handled differently? 3. If the IRA is set up as individual Beneficiary IRAs under the beneficiaries' names, will it not count as a distribution by the IRS, or does it need to be titled "[deceased], deceased, FBO [beneficiary]" to avoid being considered a full distribution?
