Retirement tax questions

Explain what you mean by "from a 401a *and Roth* to simple IRA"?      What does "and Roth" mean?

 

Are you saying that the 401(a) was a designated Roth (401(a) Roth) account?   A Roth cannot be rolled to a SIMPLE IRA.  

 

A Traditional 401(a) to SIMPLE IRA is not taxable.  What code is in box 7 on your 1099-R for the 401 distribution?  What is in box 2a? Is box 2b checked?
