Roth 401k/early withdrawal problems
I can't tell if I'm missing a form, or not seeing where to enter this information in TurboTax.
In 2019 I rolled over a Roth 401k to a Roth IRA, (both Vanguard accounts). I immediately did an early withdrawal from the Roth IRA -- this was the motivation for the rollover.
I recieved in 1099-R from Vanguard, for the early distribution. My 1099-R has "Taxable amount not determined" checked, and box 5 (employee contributions) is blank.
About half of the money withdrawn was my contributions to the Roth 401k, thus I expected an early withdrawal penalty on half the amount.
TurboTax doesn't think any of my withdrawal is from my contributions and is showing me a gigantic tax liability, I assume from both the early withdrawal penalty, and the entire amount being considered income.
There is a field in EasyStep that asks me to enter "prior year Roth IRA contributions", but since I rolled over the same year, and my contributions were to the 401k, I am unsure whether to enter my contributions here.
Any advice on how I should go about fixing this?
