Current with changes from the 2024 Legislative Session
Section 9:2151.2 - Deferred compensation, annuities, and similar payments
A. Payments made in money or other property to a trustee over a period of years or during the life of an individual from an annuity, an individual retirement account, an employee-benefit plan, a pension plan, a profit-sharing plan, a deferred compensation plan, or any similar arrangement created pursuant to income-tax incentives to fund for retirement are allocated as follows:
(1) To the extent that a payment is characterized as interest, a dividend, or a payment made in lieu of interest or a dividend, a trustee shall allocate the payment to income. The trustee shall allocate to principal the balance of the payment and any other payment received in the same accounting period that is not characterized as interest, a dividend, or an equivalent payment.
(2) If no part of a payment is characterized as interest, a dividend, or an equivalent payment, and all or part of the payment is required to be made, a trustee shall allocate to income ten percent of the part that is required to be made during the accounting period and the balance to principal. If no part of a payment is required to be made or the payment received is the entire amount to which the trustee is entitled, the trustee shall allocate the entire payment to principal. To the extent that a trustee exercises a right of withdrawal, a payment is not considered to be required to be made.
B. If, in order to qualify for a marital deduction, a trustee must allocate more of a payment to income than provided for in this Section, the trustee shall allocate to income the additional amount necessary to qualify for the marital deduction.
