The Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) age changed with the passing of the Secure Act in 2019. If you turned 70 ½ before 2020 then you may be subject to RMDs. For 2020 and beyond, the age at which individuals may be required to take RMDs from retirement accounts is 72. 

Please note: The CARES Act waived RMDs for 2020.
