If you have a pension, the IRS treats you completely differently than every other retiree in America — and almost nobody, including most accountants, understands what that actually means for your tax bill.
In this video, Kevin walks through the six things the IRS does to pension holders that nobody is talking about:
One: Your pension is taxed as fully ordinary income — every dollar, in most cases. People assume part of it comes back tax-free. It usually does not.
Two: Your state of residence changes the after-tax value of your pension by tens of thousands of dollars over retirement. Pennsylvania, Illinois, Mississippi take zero. California can take over nine percent. Same pension, different state, ninety thousand dollars over twenty-five years.
Three: Your pension automatically pushes your Social Security into the eighty-five percent taxable zone. Pension income counts fully toward provisional income, and the thresholds have not been adjusted since the eighties.
Four: Your Roth conversion strategy is different because you do not have the low-income gap years other retirees have. But you have a bigger RMD problem coming if you do nothing.
Five: Medicare IRMAA surcharges hit pension holders harder because your income floor is permanently elevated. A normal-sized Roth conversion can spike your premiums two years later by thousands of dollars.
Six: The lump sum versus monthly pension decision is not about returns. It is about whether you will actively manage the tax timing of every dollar for the rest of your life. Most retirees miss the hybrid option entirely.
