I should add that you should mail the 8606 using a tracking service such as certified mail with return receipt to prove it was send and received by the IRS.
This should be done before Oct 15,2021,which is the extended due date for filing the paper work, if *either* an extension was filed OR you filed the original return prior to May 17, 2021.
