My wife and I filed tax jointly in 2016. She made a nondeductible IRA contribution via Fidelity investment in september of 2016. I made two nondeductible IRA contributions via Fidelity investment in January of 2017 and February of 2017. We used turbotax to file in march of 2017. When we were getting information downloaded from Fidelity investment to feed into the turbotax to do our tax filing, Turbotax generated a 8606 for my wife's IRA contribution but Turbotax did not generate a 8606 for my two IRA contribution. Now i went back and checked 2016 tax filing carefully, I do not see my two IRA contribution anywhere in the tax form, but my IRA contribution was recorded in form 5498 filed by Fidelity investment.
Now, I want to a roth conversion, but i should not until I need to resolve the missing 2016 form 8606 that Turbotax failed to generate?
I was told by someone on this forum to send in a stand-alone 8606 for the 2016 now, but I think that will raise a red flag to the IRS to trigger an audit.
What is the best course of action for me please? I read a similar question on this forum, and the answer to that question was not to do anything.
