For participants who may have taken an RMD before the CARES Act took effect, the IRS has clarified that all 2020 RMDs — even those received as early as January 1 — may be rolled back into a qualified account by August 31, 2020. Moreover, such a rollover would not be subject to the one-rollover-per-year rule.
