Back Door IRA Conversion Question (1 Viewer)

[⚡DEADHEAD⚡]

I set up a regular IRA for my wife earlier this year. I'm making some modest automatic contributions. I need to backdoor this thing before the end of the calendar year but I'm not sure how to do it. What's my move?

Thanks guys.

Just slip it in, and apologize later. She'll appreciate it.

Fill out a conversion form? https://www.google.com/search?num=100&newwindow=1&client=firefox-a&hs=UnG&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&channel=sb&q=roth+ira+conversion+form+filetype%3Apdf&oq=roth+ira+conversion+form+filetype%3Apdf&gs_l=serp.3...21210.24476.0.24779.13.13.0.0.0.0.120.922.12j1.13.0....0...1c.1.54.serp..9.4.284.zlqXI0YO4z4

More complicated step is completing the conversion form for your 2014 tax return.
