Get your taxes done using TurboTax

I withdrew the $6000 from my Roth IRA as excess contributions for year 2022 and put that in a private account. Then I moved that money from my private account into a Traditional IRA for year 2022. Then I did the conversion, which isn't year specific. 

 

To clarify my other statement, I started my Roth 3 years ago, so I had contributions for 2020,  2021 and 2022. In 2022, I made too much that I didn't qualify for the Roth for that year. I didn't realize this happened until I started doing my taxes in 2023. I contributed $500 a month for all of 2022. I have no way of knowing how much of the 2022's $6000 contribution made or lost in my Roth during the year.  Since the whole market crashed in 2022, I assume I lost money on that $6000, but I have no way to tell.
