Retirement Contributions & Withdrawals
“Should I convert my traditional IRA to a Roth this year?”
Whether a traditional IRA to Roth conversion makes sense this year often depends on current and expected tax brackets, the amount already in the traditional IRA, and whether there is cash available outside the account to cover the tax cost. Timing can also matter if income is unusually high or low this year, since that can change the tax impact of the conversion. For many people, the decision also turns on future withdrawal plans, estate goals, and whether tax diversification is a priority. Sitting down with a CPA for thirty minutes is usually enough to draw a clean line on this.
