Tax returns often reveal where proactive retirement tax planning was missing—and why earlier decisions matter.
Join America’s IRA Expert, Ed Slott, CPA, for a focused discussion on the most important retirement tax conversations advisors should be having with clients right now.

Key discussion areas include:
- Planning years advisors commonly miss before RMDs begin
- Roth conversion timing decisions that continue to raise questions
- Recurring RMD and distribution issues
- Rollover decisions that deserve closer scrutiny
