    Yes, you can convert funds that were contributed to a traditional IRA to a Roth IRA. If you received any deduction on your tax return for the traditional IRA contributions when you made them, then the amount of those funds you convert to a Roth IRA is taxable. Please make sure to consult with the fund manager about your options to make sure you're making the best decision based on your circumstances.
