Retirement tax questions

Yes, you can request another withdrawal of excess contributions plus earnings. You should withdraw more than the excess contribution since you are in the phaseout range to avoid creating a new excess contribution when the earnings are added to your MAGI.

 

Yes, if you are allowed to make Roth IRA contributions for 2024 then you can pay the 6% penalty for 2023 and apply the excess to 2024. This is done on your 2024 tax return and does not involve your financial institution. 

 

  1. Click on "Search" on the top right and type “IRA contributions”
  2. Click on “Jump to IRA contributions"
  3. Select “Roth IRA
  4. On the "Do you have any Excess Roth Contributions" answer "Yes"
  5. On the "Enter Excess Contributions" screen enter the total excess contribution from 2023 (if it wasn't carried over).
  6. On the "How Much Excess to 2024?" screen enter how much you want to apply to 2024.

 

Yes, you can withdraw contributions you made to your Roth IRA anytime, tax- and penalty-free. After the extended due date you would have to request a regular distribution (leave the earnings in the account) and pay the 6% penalty on your 2023 tax return. If you want to avoid the penalty for 2024 you will have to remove the excess by December 31, 2024.
