Odd. I've gone through those exact steps.
When I arrive at the rollover question for my spouse, this is what I see:
Did [spouse name] roll over all of this $7,000 (Box 1) to another retirement account?
Let us know if you rolled over all or a portion of this distribution by depositing it in another retirement account (or returning it the same one) within the rollover time limits.
1) Yes, [spouse name] rolled over $7,000 to another traditional IRA or retirement account (or returned it to the same account).
2) No, [spouse name] rolled over less than $7,000.
3) I did something else
On the other hand, I see the following options for me when I arrive at the rollover question:
1) I rolled over some or all of it to an IRA or other retirement account within the time limits (normally 60 days)
2) I converted some or all of it to a Roth IRA
3) I did a combination of rolling over and converting some or all of this money
4) I didn't roll over or convert this money
I selected option 2 for me (converted to Roth IRA) and option 3 (I did something else) for my spouse and that seemed to do the trick on our forms 8606. It's unclear why the explicit "I converted some or all of it to a Roth IRA" isn't available for my spouse.
