Can anyone point to a place where one can find IRS-approved
life-expectancy tables?
Thanks.

I don't understand the requirement of IRS-approved. What do they
have to do with it? So far as I know, the IRS has no authority
to approve mortality tables.

The standard is the Commission's Ordinary Standard. However,
insurance companies often use their own proprietary tables. Still,
I would think that the Commission's Ordinary Standard should
fulfill a lot of purposes.

A few years ago I posted in this newsgroup an insurance mortality
table broken out by sex and smokers vs non-smokers. Perhaps you
can still find it by searching dejanews.

The IRS publishes it's own table of "divisors" for
purposes of withdrawal etc. These are not life expectancies
but can be used for IRA withdrawals. Pub 590 Individual
Retirement Arrangements (IRAs). Would need to check if
applicable to 401K etc.
