Lots of conflicting information.  If someone has been taking their regular RMDs for several years, are they required to take their 2020 RMD?

Thanks.

    ALL RMD's are suspended.

    Having started them years ago is irrelevant.

    I disagree-just checked required minimum distributions on irs website-current 'rmd' recipients must continue taking distributions.  taxpayers turning 70 and 1/2 after December 31, 2019 do NOT have to take rmd until age 72.  would appreciate hearing other viewpoints

    You're mixing apples & oranges.

    The extenders act passed late Dec said one doesn't have to START taking RMDs until 72.

    The CARES (et al) Act said any/all RMD's for 2020 can be suspended.
