I have a Roth IRA that was opened several years ago (15+). I have contributed yearly up to the annual limit including some years as Backdoor Roth. I'm over 60. If I decide to withdraw tomorrow, can I
(a) withdraw the entire amount (contribution + income) from this IRA since it was opened over 5 years ago, or (b) do I have to stop contributing, wait for 5 years before I begin withdrawals (5 years after the last contribution), or (c) is it more nuanced wherein, each contribution has its own 5-year clock and I'm allowed to only withdraw amounts that were contributed at least 5 years ago and any recent contribution is off-limits? If this is the case, how do I determine the growth associated with the most recent contributions? |

There are multiple 5 year rules. This is a decent explanation
