Get your taxes done using TurboTax

I reviewed your file. It shows the correct taxable amount in line 4b of Form 1040 (gains of $2,298) but it still shows that you took a distribution (cashed it) instead of a conversion.

 

Please follow these steps to enter the conversion:

 

  1. Click on "Search" on the top right and type “1099-R”  
  2. Click on “Jump to 1099-R”
  3.  "Review your 1099-R info" screen click "edit" next to the 1099-R with code 2 in box 7
  4. Answer questions until you get to “Tell us if you moved the money through a rollover or conversion” and choose “I converted some or all of it to a Roth IRA
  5. On the "Review your 1099-R info" screen click "continue"
  6. Answer "yes" to "Any nondeductible Contributions to your IRA?" if you had any nondeductible contributions in prior years.
  7. Answer the questions about the basis from line 14 of your 2020 Form 8606 and the value of all traditional, SEP, and SIMPLE IRAs
