In this video, we go over the steps to correct excess contributions made to a Roth IRA. We stress the importance of differentiating between traditional and Roth IRAs since the appropriate fixes depend on the type of IRA and when the contributions were made. We detail the four different methods of rectifying excess contributions to a Roth IRA, which include corrective distribution, recharacterization, ordinary distribution, and absorption. We clarify that although there is a six percent penalty for excess contributions, it only applies to the excess amount, not the total balance. It is highly advantageous to identify excess contributions early to avoid penalties and simplify the correction process.
