Deductions & credits

line 14 is for basis in traditional IRA's. since you convert each year to ROTHs you have no traditional IRAs and thus $0 basis. 

 

line 14 is a calculated number so you should not be entering anything on that line. overrides will prevent e-filing

 

let's say you have no basis in traditional IRAs and in 2020 make a nondeductible $7000 IRA contribution which you convert to a ROTH in the same year
