Roth Conversion Taxes and Trust as A Beneficiary for a 403b

This week's Slott Report Mailbag looks at taxes associated with converting a Traditional IRA into a Roth; we also have a 2-part question regarding a living trust as the designated beneficiary on a 403b Plan -- that living trust then designated her children as equal beneficiaries.

Can I Convert an Annuity to a Roth IRA?

A holiday weekend version of The Slott Report Mailbag features questions concerning a 1099-R filing error, the possibility of converting an annuity to a Roth IRA and the viability of the often discussed (at least in this space) back-door Roth IRA.
