For some accounting reasons I would like to do the following, if possible:
1) Make a monthly withdrawal from an existing traditional IRA (I am over age 59 1/2).
2) Within 60 days, deposit the money in a Roth IRA and designate it as a Roth conversion.
Assume that I will find a way to pay the taxes on the withdrawn/converted amount in a timely fashion.
Is it permissible to (a) do a coversion as a 60-day rollover and (b) do multiple conversions during the year, so long as the same dollars are converted only one time each?
As a related question, is there any limitation on what you can do with funds involved in a 60-day rollover during those 60 days, as long as you get them to where they're going within 60 days?
