I'm getting ready to make my annual Roth conversion tomorrow.
I also may have not paid enough estimated taxes to cover my required withholding on total income for 2022, as I had some lumpy income and was lazy/distracted. I know that tax withholding from a Roth conversion count as paid on time for general withholding, so I can bump up the voluntary conversion withholding to cover my anticipated total withholding requirement. My question is: Can I recompensate from taxable money outside retirement accounts to my Roth IRA for the amount diverted from the conversion for taxes ? I believe I read something about doing this in the last few years, but my Google search isn't bringing up the relevant info. The reason for doing this is to avoid potential late/underpayment of estimated taxes.
Anyone know ?
