Re: [TSPStrategy] Roth conversions

Here's a link to a discussion in a Turbotax thread. The answer is, yes, you can spread the payments out quarterly. https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/retirement/discussion/2025-roth-conversion-all-in-january-pay-taxes-quarterly/00/3415159#:~:text=Answering%20your%20actual%20question%2C%20yes,What%20is%20your%202024%20tax%20?But...

Re: [TSPStrategy] Roth conversions

I know it's August. Thank you you answering. This year I will use TurboTax and I think it will have me fill out form 2210 AI?. I converted traditional IRA to Roth on 2025 June 17 and paid to IRS direct 100% of what I thought the tax will be. I plan on doing conversions for the next 10 years. I am not...

Re: [TSPStrategy] Roth conversions

I should add that simply making a large payment at the end of the year to meet one of the safe harbor thresholds is not enough to avoid the penalty. You must meet the payment requirements throughout the year with quarterly estimated payments. See, https://www.irs.gov/businesses/small-businesses-self-employed/estimated-taxesTomOn...

Re: [TSPStrategy] Roth conversions

More detail:1) I noted that Boldin was more aggressive, meaning it had me take a pretty large conversion in the first year up into the 24% bracket and a higher IRMAA bracket for one year. This makes some sense since it is assuming that current tax rates will reset higher in 2026. Otherwise, it spread...

Re: [TSPStrategy] Roth conversions

Actually you answered one of my questions in that Pralana gave you roughly the same conversion amounts. When I convert at 12% I understand what boldin is doing. But when I convert at "highest estate value,," I don't understand why it goes to 15% effective tax rate conversion. Also I still have to work...

Re: [TSPStrategy] Roth conversions

Yes, I've used Boldin and Pralana to estimate Roth conversions I plan to begin this year. What questions do you have about it? While I prefer Pralana, Boldin is considered the easier of the two to master and has sexier graphics. I just prefer the way Pralana presented the data and thought...

[TSPStrategy] Roth conversions

I retired April 30 USPS.62 yo. After putting money into tsp. I never paid attention to Roth IRA. I should have paid better attention. I could have shifted some funds at 12%. I still have some years to do this and I will delay SS also. Does anyone have experience with Boldin software? Advice? Also I...
