A few questions to head me in the right direction...
Pre-age 59.5: If I do an early withdrawal from a Roth (for educational purposes, should be penalty exempt), where does the Roth withdrawal get reported? Does it affect AGI like a non-Roth IRA would or does just the income above principle get reported in AGI?
Can I withdraw "principle only" (basis?) to avoid an AGI increase, or am I required to calculate every early withdrawal as a proportion of both principle and growth?
Also, if I end up in the non-exempt zone for the penalty, and also for the "growth" portion if required to withdraw, can I take advantage of identifying some portion as "over the remainder of my life" - and if so, what tables does the IRS use for life expectancy.
Thanks,
