Tax payment method
Use this educational page when you are not sure whether Roth conversion taxes will be paid from outside funds or IRA withholding.
When tax payment method is marked not sure, the calculator does not model an early distribution penalty amount.
The not-sure option exists for users who want to explore the calculator before deciding how tax payment assumptions should be entered.
Because withholding choices can affect penalty modeling, the calculator keeps the penalty amount at zero when the method is marked not sure.
Users can switch between outside funds and IRA withholding later to compare how the modeled output changes.
Open the calculator with this tax payment method prefilled, then adjust withheld amount, age, penalty exception, income, basis, and conversion amount.
