Traditional IRA Basis Tracking

Hello,

Having trouble with traditional IRA basis tracking in turbo tax.  Not entirely sure how to clean this up.

 

2022 - 8606

Summary - Contributed 6k nondeductible.  No Roth conversion during 2022

  • Line 1 - 6000
    • Contributed 6000 for 2022
  • Line 3 - 6000
  • Line 14 - 6000
    • No roth conversion during 2022 - so 6k basis

 

2023 - 8606

Summary - Contributed 6500 nondeductible.  Converted entire balance (12500+interest) to Roth.

  • Line 1 - 6500
    • Contributed 6500 for 2023
  • Line 2 - 0
    • Seems like this should be 6k to represent 2022 basis?
  • Line 3 - 6500
    • Seems like this should be 12500
  • Line 14 - 6500
    • Seems like I should have a 0 basis?

 

2024 - 8606

Summary - Contributed 7000 nondeductible.  Converted the entire balance (7000+interest) to Roth.

  • Line 1 - 7000
    • Contributed 7k for 2024
  • Line 2 - 6500
    • I think I should be at a 0 basis.
  • Line 3 - 13500
  • Line 5 - 13500
    • Not sure why this has a value
  • Line 13 - 7004
  • Line 14 - 6496
  • Line 16 - 7004
  • Line 17 - 7004

 

 

Questions

  1. Is my understanding correct?
  2. I can't seem to get turbo tax to recognize a 0 basis on Line 14 (2023)
  3. Should I input 0 basis on Line 2 (2024) to correct this?
