subject: Roth IRA Conversions - Eligibility, Types of Conversions and Adjusted Gross Income Limits [print this page] Also note that if your IRA consists of funds from a prior rollover from another qualified retirement plan such as 401k, 403b plan, SEP plan, etc, all of the funds converted will be taxable at the time of conversion. Because the conversion you are making is 'qualified', there is no need for you to pay the 10% early withdrawal penalty, thus exempting you from that.
