Get your taxes done using TurboTax
Yes, your Form 8606 looks correct.
Line 14 is your unused basis ($4,000 - $2,203 = $1,797) and this will carry over to your 2021 tax return. You can enter this basis during the interview on your 2021 tax return (either in steps 9 and 10 when you enter your contributions for 2021 or in steps 11 and 12 when you enter your conversion).
To enter the nondeductible contribution to the traditional IRA:
- Open your return
- Click “Deductions &Credits” on the top
- Click "I'll choose what to work on"
- Scroll down to “Traditional and Roth IRA Contributions” and click “Start”
- Select “traditional IRA”
- Answer “No” to “Is This a Repayment of a Retirement Distribution?”
- Enter the amount you contributed
- Answer “No” to the recharacterized question on the “Did You Change Your Mind?” screen
- Answer the next questions until you get to “Any Nondeductible Contributions to Your IRA?” and select “Yes” if you had nondeductible contributions before this tax year
- Enter your basis in the Traditional IRA from your 2020 Form 8606 line 14
- On the “Choose Not to Deduct IRA Contributions” screen choose “Yes, make part of my IRA contribution nondeductible” and enter the amount (if you have a retirement plan at work and are over the income limit it will be nondeductible automatically and you only get a warning and then a screen saying $0 is deductible).
To enter the 1099-R conversion:
- Click "Federal Taxes" on the top and select "Wages & Income"
- Click "I'll choose what to work on"
- Scroll down and click "Start" next to "IRA, 401(k), Pension Plan (1099-R)"
- Answer "Yes" to the question "Did You Have Any of These Types of Income?"
- Click "I'll Type it Myself"
- Choose "Form 1099-R, Withdrawal of Money from 401(k) Retirement Plans, Pensions, IRAs, etc."
- Click "Continue" and enter the information from your 1099-R
- Answer questions until you get to “What Did You Do With The Money” and choose “I moved it to another retirement account”
- Then choose “I did a combination of rolling over, converting, or cashing out money.” and enter the amount next to "Amount converted to a Roth IRA account"
- On the "Your 1099-R Entries" screen click "continue"
- Answer "yes" to "Any nondeductible Contribution to your IRA?" if you had any nondeductible contributions in prior years.
- Answer the questions about the basis from line 14 of your 2020 Form 8606 and the value of all traditional, SEP, and SIMPLE IRAs
