IRA Disclaimer
T-IRA account owner died, investing in a deferred annuity, passed away
4 daughters are primary beneficiaries
surviving spouse is contingent
Are the daughters permitted to disclaim the inheritance (assuming they are withing the disclaiming deadline) – passing the assets to the surviving spouse?
contingent owner, not annuitant).
Assuming the wife does inherit – can she do a spousal rollover?
Anything I need to be aware of due to the IRA being invested in an deferred annuity?
Thank you

Yes, the daughters can disclaim and then the surviving spouse can do a rollover to their own IRA. No particular issues due to annuity except possibly for various fees.

she may be able to “continue the contract” in the event it had some GMIB or other similar riders.
