Roth IRA – Manage or Improve Your “8606 Ratio”
No matter how many IRAs you own…
the IRS views them as one pool of assets for tax purposes.
If you elect to do a Roth conversion you must review, with your tax professional, your pre-tax dollars being held in your traditional IRA(s), SEP and SIMPLE plan(s) to reduce your tax liability.
Each conversion will have different outcomes, but ultimately your conversions tax liability will depend on your 8606 (tax form number to report conversions) ratio.
By increasing the percentage of after-tax dollars could lessen your tax liability.
