Get your taxes done using TurboTax
To be able to help you further I will need to know if the contribution that you made 3/03/2022 was for 2021 or 2022? If it was for 2022 then you will not enter anything on your 2021 tax return. If it was made for 2021 then you will enter the nondeductible contribution on your 2021 tax return. TurboTax will create Form 8606 with a $6,000 basis on line 14. This $6,000 basis you will enter on your 2022 tax return when you report the conversion. The conversion belongs on the 2022 tax return because it happened in 2022. You will get a 2022 Form 1099-R next year.
@TurboTaxLucyB Did you have any earnings before you made the conversion? Earning will be taxable and show up on line 4b.
Another reason why you can have a taxable amount on line 4b is if your traditional IRA account was not empty and had pre-tax funds. Then the pro-rata rule applies and part of your conversion will be taxable and part nontaxable. The rest of your basis will be carried forward on Form 8606 to use in future distributions/conversions.
If none of these suggestions solve your issue I'm happy to take a look at your file if you tell me your token.
