re: Convert my traditional IRA to a Roth?

The distribution rules for a Roth conversion are slightly different than those of normal Roth contributions. With a conversion, there is a five year rule for it to be distributed tax free which is not the case for normal Roth contributions. My guess is this is one of the criteria he had in mind. They have some further info on this here. LINK
