Should I rollover my old 401k(s)? I do backdoor conversions so ITA is out. All my accounts are with Fidelity so it's not a hassle to manage separately [cont]

I feel like all the advice I read online is for lower earners or people who are less familiar with saving for retirment. I'm hoping this group has some deeper things to consider.

I have worth 500k in 401k. I rolled them only to consolidate and manage easily.
Another big factor to consider is fees, if the fees are low then i dont really see a need to roll unless your current plan allows mega roth conversions.
Some people suggestrolling to IRAs for the sake of flexibility to invest in individual ETF or stocks but I feel that should be left out of 401k.

Just an opinion

Got news that my house closing may have to be moved due to a delay in the sale of my home. My partner’s income was excluded in the DI ratio, but if it were included we’d be well under the % threshold and can be approved to close on time regardless of the sale of my house. However our mortgage company’s underwriting team has been painfully slow in confirming if her income qualifies. She’s been at her new job 1 month after a year off. Anyone with underwriting experience have insight?

Made a career pivot to another agency. During the interview we talked about how it may start as initially a "step backwards" (pay/benefits) but has potential for more long term growth. First day was yesterday. Had no communication about when or where to show up, sat in an empty office for about half an hour before a couple people finally showed. No phone call or email. Sent an email to the founder, no response. I could easily get my old job back if wanted.

What would you do in this situation?

Hello people,

Need some inputs!

When I file my ITR, it is auto-populating the 'income from other sources' by 40k and increasing my tax liability by 10k however form 26as shows no tax liability.

Should I edit the header to Rs. Xx which is below 10k hence tax exempted and stick to info as per 26AS?

Thanks a lot!
