Maxed out Roth IRA contributions when I wasn't eligible for 2021 (got a salary bump mid year). Do I need to recharacterize? It's a very small account that's been open for only two years. That's the only IRA account I own. Do I need to open a traditional IRA and roll over 6k + realized gains into that account and keep the Roth IRA. So confused how this works and got conflicting information from Merrill.

So excess contribution needs to be addressed with either a recharacterization or a withdrawal of the excess.

Many will then backdoor their recharacterization to a Roth.

Thank you for the response. I was looking into the recharacterization form. Do I just recharacterize the $6,000+ whatever gains for the 2021 year and move to traditional IRA and keep the remaining amount in my Roth IRA. Meaning I will have 2 IRA accounts going forward?

New Jersey partnership question.

Partnerships need to use market sourcing for purposes of calculating NR withholding tax (though NJ doesn't even call this withholding anymore).

However, for purposes of calculating the NJ distributive share of income, you apply Gross Income Tax (personal income tax) rules, which is 3 factor and includes COP.

If I end up with 0% apportionment under GIT and 10% apportionment under CBT (withholding tax), the partnership pays tax upfront but NRs get 100% refund?
