Hello khowarter,
Welcome to today's ask the expert event. Glad to have you. It is my understanding that you have a question about a ROTH conversion. A conversion will be a taxable event which will generate a 1099-R from your financial brokerage firm holding that account. The rule is 20% federal mandatory withholding. In my reading of your question, you provided around $5 for paying the taxes which leads me to believe that you have a conversion of $25k. Without know more specific on additional income sources, this one piece would appear to be on target with your assumptions. I can better assist you with Turbo Tax estimator called TaxCaster. Here is the link. https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tools/calculators/taxcaster/ . This estimator is helpful as you input other income sources. This will help your future tax planning as well. Unfortunately we cannot offer tax planning. Hopefully the information I have provided is helpful. Thank you for allowing me to assist you with your question. Have a great rest of the day.
