I am considering taking my 2025 RMD as an in-kind transfer of shares of VFIAX to my taxable brokerage account. My first thought is to divide the RMD into 4 transfers made in March, June, September and December and pay the estimated tax in April, June, September and January. My reason for doing so is to satisfy the IRS that I am making estimated tax payments as I receive income in the form of RMD payments. Also, I do not want to take the RMD all in one transaction.
I realize that by taking the RMD in 4 payments I need to make certain that I take the entire RMD by 12-31-2025. If the value of the shares that are transferred are insufficient I can make up the shortfall with a distribution from VMRXX.
Any feedback on what I am considering doing would be appreciated.
