120% Mid-Term Applicable Federal Rates

Use the table below to determine the interest rate you should input into the Interest Rate Assumption field in ImagiSOFT's SEPP / 72(t) Software.

Guidance is provided from IRS Revenue Notice 2022-6 which states: "The interest rate that may be used to apply the fixed amortization method or the fixed annuitization method is any interest rate that is not more than the greater of (i) 5.00% or (ii) 120% of the federal mid-term rate (determined in accordance with section 1274(d) for either of the two months immediately preceding the month in which the distribution begins)."

For example: Your customer wants to receive Monthly Substantially Equal Periodic Payments beginning March 10, 2024. The interest rate that corresponds to February 2024 in the monthly column is 4.68% and the rate for January 2024 is 5.12%. In the software enter the greater of 5.00% (paragraph above), 5.12% (January 2024 monthly below), or 4.68% (February 2024 below), which is 5.12%, which will give your customer the highest monthly payout. Click the January 2024 link to save the IRS source document, and keep the 72(t) calculation page to help defend your client in the event of an IRS audit. In the rare occurance your customer wants a lower payout, they may choose an interest rate ranging from 0% to 5.12%.
