Get your taxes done using TurboTax

A Roth conversion has to be included in your taxable income unless you has a basis in your traditional IRA (nondeductible contributions tracked on Form 8606). 

 

A traditional IRA is a pre-tax account and a Roth IRA is an after-tax account therefore when you move the money from the traditional to Roth this income is taxable and included in your AGI.
