Get your taxes done using TurboTax
Are you sure you do not have a distribution or conversion entered? Do you have any Form 1099-R entered? If your refund increased after entering the prior basis then this would indicate that you used this basis on a IRA distribution/conversion calculated on Form 8606.
Note, if you did not make a nondeductible IRA contribution or took a distribution/ made a conversion in 2024 then you do not need to file Form 8606. Please keep your last filed Form 8606. Please see Who Must File 2024 Form 8606.
It would be helpful to have a TurboTax ".tax2024" file that is experiencing this issue. You can send us a “diagnostic” file that has your “numbers” but not your personal information. If you would like to do this, here are the instructions for TurboTax Online:
- From the left menu select Tax Tools.
- Then select Tools below Tax Tools.
- A window will pop up which says Tools Center.
- On this screen, select Share my file with Agent.
- You will see a message explaining what the diagnostic copy is. Click okay through this screen and then you will get a Token number.
- Reply to this thread with your Token number and add @DanaB27 . This will allow us to open a copy of your return without seeing any personal information.
The instructions for TurboTax Download:
