Retirement tax questions

Per @macuser_22:

 

"This so-called “back-door Roth” method ONLY works if you have NO OTHER Traditional IRA accounts.  If you do, then the non-deductible part must be spread over ALL accounts and cannot be withdrawn by itself.  Only if you started with NO Traditional, SEP & SIMPLE IRA and ended up with a zero amount in ALL Traditional, SEP & SIMPLE IRA accounts will this Roth conversion not be taxable."

 

Since we can't see your tax return in this forum, click this link for more info on Non-Deductible IRA to Roth Conversion that may help you.
