Retirement Contributions & Withdrawals
“Do I want to do a Roth conversion this year?”
Whether a Roth conversion makes sense this year often depends on current and expected future tax brackets, the amount of pre-tax retirement savings involved, and whether you expect your income to be higher or lower in later years. The timing can also be affected by cash available to cover the tax cost, the mix of traditional and Roth accounts you already have, and any other income events this year, such as a bonus, sale of investments, or retirement. In many cases, the question is less about whether a conversion is good in general and more about how it fits into your broader tax picture. Working through the specifics with a CPA is the cleanest way to land on the right move.
