Roth conversions are a powerful tax planning opportunity for retirees, but the devil is in the details. Missing a couple small things could end up costing you.

In this Friday Q&A, we answer the following questions:

  • If I do a Roth conversion, do I need to make estimated tax payments or can I just pay when I file my taxes?
