Converting an inherited IRA to a Roth IRA

If I inherit an IRA from a non-spouse, can I convert this to a Roth IRA?



No.  A Roth conversion is a distribution from an IRA and a taxable rollover to a Roth IRA, and a non-spouse beneficiary is not permitted to roll over a distribution from an inherited IRA.
