So I contributed to a Roth IRA account for 2009 and didn't realize until I started doing my taxes that I should have contributed to a Traditional IRA to be qualified for a deduction. Can I move those funds from the Roth IRA to the Traditional IRA without it being considered a conversion? just hoping there was something I could do to fix it since I know you have up until April 15th to contribute for the previous year.

Why would you do that? all investment distributions from a TRADITIONAL IRA are taxed as ordinary income. The ROTH IRA contributions have already been taxed. this makes absolutely no sense. Leave it in the ROTH IRA account.

If your income exceeds the ROTH IRA qualification limits, I recommend seeking a tax professional for assistance.

Taxes are due on the amount rolled over, but the 10% penalty on early withdrawal from an IRA is waived. you can transfer money into a Roth IRA if your adjusted gross income is no more than $100,000 in the year you make the transfer.
