Prior to 2010, only those account owners who had a modified adjusted gross income below $100,000 were eligible to convert. Despite its advantages, Roth may not be the preferred option for all investors. There are three important factors—taxes, time, and costs—that you should consider before you decide if conversion is right for you.

It's also important to note that if you are required to take a required minimum distribution (RMD) in the year you convert to a Roth IRA, you must do so before converting. <h3> Considerations for owners of Roth IRAs </h3> Distributions from a Roth IRA are qualified, and thus tax-free and penalty-free, provided that the 5-year aging requirement has been satisfied and at least one of the following conditions has been met: You reach age 59½ You pass away You are disabled You make a qualified first-time home purchase All other distributions are non-qualified. Non-qualified distributions of converted balances are not taxed again (since they were taxed when converted), but they may be subjected to a 10% penalty unless it's been at least five years since the beginning of the year of your conversion, you've reached age 59½, or one of the other exceptions applies.

RMDs are not required during the lifetime of the original owner of a Roth IRA. RMD amounts are not eligible to be converted to a Roth IRA. Answer a few questions in the IRA Contribution Calculator to find out whether a Roth or traditional IRA might be right for you, based on how much you’re eligible to contribute and how much you might be able to deduct on your taxes.
