Reply to comment by tastethesaltinthesea in Question about backdoor Roth with large Traditional IRA by tastethesaltinthesea

The only thing that matters is the traditional IRA balance at the end of the year. So as long as you move that money out of the IRA and into the 401k by the end of the year, you'll be fine.

You will stay pay taxes on your wife's IRA conversion.
