<<There was something about that on TV last night... and the commentator was saying that some people have too much income for a Roth IRA and can be penalized for using one???>> I believe the limits are $96,000 for a single person and $160,000 for a married couple.

We luv FIDELITY!!!! Fidelity reps helped us figure out what we needed to do in a hurry! There are limits for Roth contributions. I don't know what they are but the Turbo Tax walks you through that part of taxes. Unfortunately, Turbo Tax failed to ask us if we had a Roth conversion so that is why we screwed up. But amended tax form was posted last night so we should have met deadline okay. If the courteous Fidelity representatives had not helped us, we would not have been able to post amended return in time. They told us exactly where to put numbers etc. Fidelity representative walked us through TAX form, line by line, for Roth conversion. I luv' FIDELITY!!!!! PS: MY full-service broker would never have done what Fidelity did. Gotta go plant my irises.......
