Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Thanks for the information.  I think I know where I have been confused.  I think this is what I need to input.  As for my example:

 

$1000 contributed to Roth in 2020

$1317 was recharacterized in 2021 for 2020 ($1000 contributed + $317 gain)

 

Under "Wages and Income" under Outstanding Recharacterizations I will put $1000

Under "Deductions and Credits" under "Enter your Roth IRA contributions" for 2020, I will enter $1000

On the next screen it asks "Tell Us How Much You Transferred of this $1000" I will put $1317

 

Is this correct?

 

Also under the "more information" or "examples" tab it says I should to enter my 1099-R from 2021 for tax year 2020 showing my recharacterization, however you stated I do not have to.  Do I need to put this 1099-R on my amended 2020 return even though it doesn't get reported? 

 

Thank you!
