Subject: RMD's at Vanguard
As much as I hoped to avoid RMD's through many years of aggressive Roth conversions, I failed. I arrives at RMD age and still have a balance in my TIRA and I must take an RMD. So my question has to do with taking the RMD on Vanguards website.

I know my RMD amount, so I logged onto Vanguard to transfer that amount from my TIRA to my taxable account. Easy enough, I have made lots of transfers over the years. So I went through the screens and when I got to end, and was presented with click here to commit. I did NOT commit. Why?

Vanguard did not offer me the opportunity to designate this as my RMD. SO how does Uncle Sugar know I satisfied the RMD? Are any of you Vanguard customers who have already navigated the RMD process. I would send a question to VNG but their web site doesn't offer that, of course but that is another problem.
