Freelancer Client is hiring: Inherited/Successor Beneficiary Seeking Tax-Deferred Distribution - Set Up Schwab Acct.
Location: Remote
My father’s IRA rolled into his trust when he died in November 2023. After my mother’s death in April 2026, the trustee is to split the assets equally between my sister and me. I already opened an inherited IRA at Schwab, but I’m not fully convinced the account is titled—or structured—exactly the way the IRS requires (or even if this is the correct account to open within Schwab).
Benefits & perks:
• the distribution method is set up so annual—or flexible—withdrawals remain compliant and avoid early taxation
Skills: Legal, Tax, Contracts, Tax Law, Tax Compliance
Budget: $750–$1500 USD

My father’s IRA rolled into his trust when he died in November 2023. After my mother’s death in April 2026, the trustee is to split the assets equally between my sister and me. I already opened an inherited IRA at Schwab, but I’m not fully convinced the account is titled—or structured—exactly the way the IRS requires (or even if this is the correct account to open within Schwab).
I need to get a package together for the trustee so I do not receive a lump-sum, which she has threatened to unless I sign a broad waiver & release regarding failing to meet a wide range of fiduciary duties. The trustee is in Virginia and both parents spent last 2 decades in the state. RMDs were being taken prior to my father's death.
What I need is a precise, written confirmation that the Schwab account can accept the trustee-to-beneficiary transfer without forcing a lump-sum payout or jeopardizing the 10-year distribution window under the SECURE Act. In short, I want to be 99.9 % certain that:
• the account is set up so not immediately taxed
• the account title follows IRS wording for a beneficiary (though I may be a "Successor Beneficiary," not sure that makes a difference) IRA coming from an IRA within a trust
• the distribution method is set up so annual—or flexible—withdrawals remain compliant and avoid early taxation
• the trustee receives clear, executable instructions for funding the account
You’ll have access to redacted trust language, current Schwab paperwork, and any beneficiary forms you request. I set up the Schwab Inherited IRA yesterday, so expect account number, etc. to arrive shortly. The trustee has been adversarial since I am requesting paperwork to reconcile my estate asset total with theirs (per VA law and trust terms), which she doesn't like as I believe sloppy recordkeeping is the norm.
Please provide an overview of the process, look over trust documents to ensure no surprises, indicate what paperwork I need from Schwab (though forms completed online) I should provide to trustee, highlight any areas of concern, provide help with account titling, and produce a concise memo I can hand the trustee (and keep for my records) that shows the account is correctly titled and the distribution plan is proper under IRS Pub 590-B and current Schwab policy.
Experience with inherited IRAs held in trust, SECURE Act nuances, and Schwab’s custodial forms is essential. I have trust, will, codicil, etc. documents for review as well.
Best regards,
John
