Ooops...I guess I don't do that since you are right. Good catch. Since 2010, I have had zero balance in traditional IRAs, so this didn't affect me.
Any new hires could think about converting any traditional IRAs in their first/low-income year in prep for higher tax brackets later. Who knows if this back door will remain, but my hunch is that tax rates will be going up. And I'm an anonymous internet poster, so you should really listen to me!!!
There's a way around the proration problem, too: roll over the full balance of the IRA into a 401(k), then roll the after-tax portion back out into a Roth IRA. That gets your before-tax balance into a tax-deferred account (i.e., no current taxes due), and zeroes out your IRA balance for future "back door" Roth contributions.
You guys sure do go to a lot of trouble "managing your portfolios" with all the machinations mentioned in the last few pages. It's going to be all for naught when the government confiscates your IRA/401Ks in a few years...
What carrier is DS in Travelnet? I'm trying to get home on an Endeavor flight and there are a couple DS guys less senior to me on the list. Will they travel S3 or S3B like me? Might make a difference between a nice commute home and enjoying a night in the DTW econolodge...

That only gives priority codes, not carrier codes.

I could be wrong- but DS is for Delta Global. And they ride at S3C.
Again- I could be wrong.
