The Tax-Free Retirement Withdrawal Calculator on RetireCoast.com, designed to help retirees strategically access funds from tax-deferred accounts like Traditional IRAs and 401(k)s with minimal tax impact. The calculator utilizes the standard deduction and low tax brackets (specifically the 0% and 10% rates) to identify amounts that can be withdrawn tax-free or at a low rate. A key goal is to facilitate the gradual conversion of funds into a Roth IRA to benefit from tax-free growth and withdrawals in the future, also avoiding Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs). The source details how to use the calculator by inputting current income and explains the calculation process based on 2025 tax figures for married couples over 65. Ultimately, this strategy aims to create a more tax-efficient and secure retirement by optimizing withdrawals and leveraging the benefits of Roth IRAs.
