As you enter retirement, your tax burden won’t disappear, but it is likely to change. Here are six areas that may impact your taxes in retirement.

• Part-time work: Working during retirement could raise your income into a higher tax bracket, which could result in having to pay federal income tax on your Social Security benefits. For this reason, you might consider delaying Social Security benefits.
• IRA distributions: Keep in mind that there are different tax advantages and disadvantages to Roth IRAs versus traditional IRAs.
• Distributions from employer-sponsored retirement plans: If you wait to take a distribution after you reach age 59 1/2, you will avoid paying the 10 percent early withdrawal penalty and generally will pay income taxes on the distribution based on your ordinary income tax rate.
• State tax laws: Where you live determines how much state tax you’ll pay. If you’re planning to move to a new state, learn how tax laws may affect your income.
• The Tax Credit for the Elderly or the Disabled: Depending on your age, filing status, and income, you may be eligible for the credit.
• Reverse mortgages: Because reverse mortgages are considered loan advances and not income, the amount you receive is not taxable, but make sure you understand the fees and costs associated with them.
