Since her household income is more than $44,000, chances are her SS will be taxed at 85%.  Not 100% of her SS is taxable. 

Therefore your formula would be  (401K withdrawal + 85% of SS + other income) < $109450

Of course only the income above $109450 would be taxed at 22%, e.g. if income is $100,000, only $550 (100,000-109450) would be taxed at 22%.   So she's free to experiment on how much 401K withdraw she could make to optimize her number for the future years.

只有超出bracket 的部分纳下一个level 的税,看来很合理嘛。 -笑薇.- 给 笑薇. 发送悄悄话 笑薇. 的博客首页 (0 bytes) () 10/12/2022 postreply 10:42:06
