IRA Beneficiary is a foreign national

[rblum50]

I was a contacted by a CPA that has a recently deceased client with an IRA. There are several beneficiaries for this IRA and they are all foreign nationals. Can these beneficiaries set-up rollover IRA's in the US to avoid having to pay taxes? Are there any other options for these beneficiaries to keep the monies tax-sheltered?

Each beneficiary might want her lawyer's information and advice about whether a treaty might allow a desired tax treatment.
