Dec. 31, 2021. Last day to donate shares to charity or convert a Traditional IRA to a Roth IRA.

Dec. 31 is the last day to donate shares to charity by the end of year deadlines. It’s also the last day you can convert a Traditional IRA to a Roth IRA and have it count for the 2021 tax year.

The last market day of the year is also normally the last day to request a Required Minimum Distribution. 

Please note that Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs) from IRAs require additional time to process and as such should be requested at least a week in advance of the December 31st deadline.
