Question

What is modified adjusted gross income (MAGI)?

Answer

Modified adjusted gross income (MAGI) is an income measurement used by the IRS to determine eligibility for tax benefits, credits, and phase-outs. MAGI includes your adjusted gross-income (AGI) plus specific add-backs for deductions not included in your AGI, such as income earned in foreign investments. MAGI can impact your Roth IRA eligibility, Medicare expenses, and certain tax credits.
