Retirement tax questions

MAGI (Modified Adjusted Gross Income) can be defined as your household's adjusted gross income with certain deductions added back.

 

To find your MAGI, take your AGI and add back:

  • Any deductions you took for IRA contributions and taxable Social Security payments
  • Any deductions you took for student loan interest or tuition
  • Excluded foreign income
  • Half of your self-employment taxes
  • Interest from EE savings bonds used to pay for higher education expenses
  • Losses from a publicly-traded partnership
  • Passive income or loss
  • Qualified tuition expenses
  • Rental losses
  • The exclusion for adoption expenses
