Estate & Asset Protection Attorney, Victoria Collier helps readers leverage personal finances for long-term health care by providing a three-step guide.

DECATUR, GA, August 15, 2018: Victoria L. Collier, founder of The Estate & Asset Protection Law Firm, has posted a new article on her law firm’s website entitled “Step-by-Step How To Leverage Your IRA For Long-Term Care Insurance,” in which Ms. Collier acknowledges there may be other ways of accomplishing the goal than what she proposes.

Collier writes, “In my most recent blog, (Leverage Your IRA To Pay For Long-Term Care Insurance And Benefit Your Heirs), I promised I would provide a guide to help readers take steps on their own behalf for rolling an IRA into a life insurance policy with long-term care features. As promised, here we go.”

Says Collier, “There may be other ways to go about this, but this is one option that you may be able to accomplish on your own.” She adds, “If you need guidance or further assistance, please contact our office.”

According to Collier, “What you will want to do is to convert your IRA into a long-term care insurance policy with a tax-qualified annuity. If you invest in a tax-qualified annuity that makes internal distributions to an insurance carrier, you can indirectly pay for long-term care coverage using IRA money without additional tax penalties.”
