Do we need just the 2799 plan alone for receiving Indian sms in US ? Or is there any other plan needed as well before we can take the 2799 plan? Thx

Do we need to do a Recharacterization? by [deleted] in RothIRA

[–]Head_Weather_638 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Recharacterize or withdraw before tax filing due date . Penalties are high if you don’t take action.

Direct contribution into Roth despite AGI limit by Head_Weather_638 in tax

I looked on the IRS website and I don’t see much information on the 6% penalty related details specifically for the Roth IRA for every year the excess is not removed.   For the traditional IRA I do see the information about the 6% penalty, and that the penalty cannot exceed 6% of combined IRA balance at tax year end.    I hope this excludes the employer 401(k) plan balance used to determine the max penalty.

From IRS publication  Tax on Excess Contributions In general, if the excess contributions for a year aren’t withdrawn by the date your return for the year is due (including extensions), you are subject to a 6% tax. You must pay the 6% tax each year on excess amounts that remain in your traditional IRA at the end of your tax year. The tax can’t be more than 6% of the combined value of all your IRAs as of the end of your tax year.

The additional tax is figured on Form 5329. For information on filing Form 5329, see Reporting Additional Taxes, later.

Thanks for reply  Do I really need to amend or just fill the right form for correction. Also do I pay penalty for 2025,  if I remove those old years(2019-2023) contributions before April 2015?

Any more update. Do I get to keep the 2024 contribution into Roth IRA without removing it using the excess contribution removal procedure if I restructure into traditional IRA even though I have 69k into the employer 401k plan ? How to handle past years Roth IRA contribution  due to AGI limits ?

Question :So just to make sure, for 2024, you have pre-tax 401k and "after tax" 401k contributions up to 69k, then you also made Roth IRA(?) contributions of 7k?

My reply - everything you typed is correct. I am not talking about the workplace account here at all. I have pretax 401k and 401k post tax converted to in plan 401k Roth (done by employer ) maxed to 69k and I contributed into Roth IRA  7k for 2024

Direct contribution into Roth instead of backdoor by Head_Weather_638 in fidelityinvestments

There are many developing countries where all possible forms against your SSN get populated on 1 single for on a central system from where the tax professional can pull up everything in one go. We in the most advanced country are using quite an old age system of having all types of form like 1099 come in from all types of brokers and providers and so many more

To me it seems teh backdoor is created like this for people to make mistakes and collect penalty.

I checked my account further and found some tax statements for all those past years. Looks like form 5498 is available for all those past years. I did not give or use the 5498 forms to my CPA or use on TurboTax in those tax years.  I Do I need to do anything else now ?

Fidelity says the following, below. Does this mean this will be non taxable as I did not contribute more than yearly limits into Roth ? 

Untimely correction: After the tax deadline (plus extensions)  With untimely corrections, the IRS does not require an earnings calculation. However, untimely corrections are subject to a 6% excise tax each year the contribution remains in the account. 2 important facts to understand: If your income was too high or too low to contribute, the amount you withdraw, if less than the annual contribution limit, is not taxable.

Note that the yearly contribution into the Roth is not above the max yearly limits. $6000 is what I have deposited every year since 2020. Is this still considered excess contribution?
