The IRS ruled that the beneficiaries of a marital trust are eligible beneficiaries; that an IRA established to receive distributions from the deceased spouse's pension plan on behalf of the marital trust will be treated as an inherited IRA or annuity; and that any rollovers from the plan to the IRA will be tax free to the marital trust.
See PLR 201203033 (Oct. 26, 2011).
