I want to keep myself in the 15% tax bracket. I converted part of an IRA
to a Roth and can recharacterize part of that back to keep myself in the
15% tax bracket. I figure by changing the amount that I enter from the
1099 I will know how much to recharacterize. But I can't figure out
where turbo tax tells me my marginal tax rate.

The 15% bracket tops out at:

$32,550 single
$65,100 MFJ
$32,550 MFS
$43,650 HOH

These are the amount of ~taxable~ income (ie: after deductions and
exemptions).
