New 529 to Roth Options
Hello,
With respect to the new 529 to Roth transfer allowance put in place by SECURE 2.0. We know that the annual transfer amount cannot exceed the annual IRA contribution limits.
Do you interpret that the funds transferred from the 529 to Roth under the rules would be treated as regular contributions to the Roth where the Roth owner could withdraw those amounts at any time with no consequences regardless of age or whether the 5-year holding period has been satisfied? Basically are these 529 to Roth transfers treated as basis in the receiving Roth?
Thank you.
