I have a large capital gains in a stock that I want to take this month, no later. This might create a tax issue with underwithholding. Can I do the following.
Assume 25% tax bracket, retired with pension and say $40K (short term) windfall, so $10K in additional taxes due.
Can I withdraw say $14K from a traditonal IRA (hence $55K income and roughly $13.5K taxes due) and have them withhold the $13.5K)? Or, instead, take out $10K from a Roth IRA and have them withhold $10K in taxes (would they do that?).
