In my case, can I take the owed taxes from the Roth IRA to pay the taxes due without incurring penalties, etc?
Monday, July 5th, 2010I converted a Traditional IRA to a Roth IRA. The federal taxes were withheld – all is well with that (I think). The state taxes were not withheld. Now I owe the state a bunch of money. Can I take the owed amount (or less) from the Roth IRA to pay the taxes due without incurring penalties, etc? Would this be considered a "premature withdrawal"?
