Inherited Roth IRA
Usually tax-free
Can You Write Off Inherited Roth IRA?
Short answer: Withdrawals are usually tax-free, but most non-spouse heirs must empty the account within 10 years.
Spouses can treat it as their own Roth IRA.
Records to keep: Keep receipts, statements (1098, 1098-T, 1099, W-2G), and a note of what each cost was for. Compare itemizing to the 2026 standard deduction before you claim.
