Estate as beneficiary

My client’s Father passed away and named the estate as the beneficiary of two IRA accounts held at a bank. The bank will only write a check to the estate. My client’s Father was not married & she is the beneficiary of the estate – there are no other siblings. Is there anyway to handle this situation to avoid the income taxes?



This will explain the best option for getting at least some stretch time for the RMDs allowing the income taxes to be spread out: http://www.ataxplan.com/bulletinBoard/ira_providers.cfm
