My client's deceased father left him and his sister his retirement accounts. Two of them are IRAs which I will advise the clients to rollover into their own accounts. There are three annuities which have the Trust as the beneficiary. The annuity company told the son that he could take the money all at once or over 5 years. Could they take a distribution with code 4 for death and then roll it over into their own IRAs without going trustee to trustee? Linda Dorfmont E.A., CFP, CSA
