Retirement tax questions

A rollover is not a new contribution.   Converting your 401(k) to a Roth 401(k) is totally separate from rolling the Roth 401(k) to a Roth IRA.    Since both a Roth 401(k) and a Roth IRA are after-tax money then there are no tax consequences to a rollover.  

 

There is not much different between a Roth 401(k) and a Roth IRA other than a IRA might offer more investment choices.
