If you are over 65 can you pay the taxes for an regular IRA to Roth conversion with a different IRA distribution?

Is the 5-year wait period for a distribution of a regular IRA to Roth conversion hard and fast no matter what your age?

Mavin – I think it’s an either or thing. Either take the tax hit in 2010, or split it between 2011 and 2012.

Can I make a full roth conversion of an IRA, one third for 2010, paying the taxes in 2010 and two thirds of it to pay the taxes in 2011 and 2012?

I have really been thinking of making the switch. I think I am decided. Thank you so much for your post.
