CARES Act
What is the CARES Act and how does it affect me?
Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) was enacted on Friday, March 27, 2020. The CARES Act provides aid and assistance to individuals and business as the country deals with the coronavirus pandemic. This over $2 Trillion economic relief package is designed to help individuals, families, business, nonprofits and healthcare workers and providers. There are other changes that are outlined in the CARES Act, but we are focusing on retirement and annuity account related questions.
Below are high-level FAQs that provide an initial overview of some of the key changes outlined in the Act. For in-depth details regarding the CARES Act, click here. As always, you should consult with your personal tax advisor regarding your own situation.
