    IRA Conversion to Roth

    Have client wanting to make a IRA conversion to Roth. Is the Converstion rules beginning in 2010 concerning income and filing status still good for 2012 with no 10% early withdrawal penalty.

    Still good.

    In fact, highly recommended by many financial advisers, because of possible upcoming tax rate increases. Incidentally, I am unaware that a Roth conversion ever entailed a 10% penalty.

      Thanks for the reply. Only reason I added the 10% penalty was it was mentioned in the Tax book and I was not sure.
      It would stand to reason since it is not a distribution.
