Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Yes, this is the correct way to report the 529 Rollover to Roth for California. Since the tax-free rollover is for a beneficiary, it doesn't need to be reported on the recipient's federal tax return.  Form 5498 is documentation for your records (along with the 1099-Q).

 

Unless a 1099-Q has taxable earnings for a non-qualified distribution, it does not need to be included in your tax return.  Here's more info on Form 1099-Q
