Re: [TSPStrategy] 20% tax on withdrawals

That's interesting to know it happened that way.

An easy way to check out about TSP withdrawals is to attend one of their webinars on this topic. Besides their chat the live Q&As are always helpful. There's one specifically on post-service (retirement) withdrawals coming up this Wednesday at 10am.

This what HAPPENED.....  I requested 20% tax amount and filed it as an RMD.

 

They took out 10% BECAUSE I filed it as and RMD.  In previous years I requested a monthly amount and

they sent 20% as I requested to the IRS BECAUSE I DID NOT designate it as an RMD,

 

This was the verbal explainaton given to me when I called then for an explaination.
