I have a doctor aged 72 with his own practice that needs to take an RMD from his Profit Sharing plan this year. His broker told him he could take this RMD and send it directly to charity.

My question is does this IRA Charitable Rollover apply to Profit Sharing Plans, or only to IRA's? If it applies to Profit Sharing Plans, how is the 1099-R coded? Thanks.

It does not apply to qualfiied plans.

Thank you. That's what I was wanting to hear.
