Deductions & credits

I'm still a bit confused. (and, sorry this is so wordy)

I entered my 2022 1099-R with Code "P & J" into my 2022 Tax Return.  

TurboTax says "It looks like you may need to Amend your 2021 Return" "Here's why: Your 1099-R reports earnings on a contribution you made in 2021. This information needs to go on your 2021 Return."

 

I went back to start to Amend my 2021 Return and discovered that I had reported the $7000 Contribution in my 2021 Return (despite what I said in my first Post).  2021 TurboTax also asked how much of the Contribution was Withdrawn before the filing due date (April 18, 2022).  I answered, $7,000....   100% of my erroneous Contribution was Withdrawn before the filing due date.

And, nothing more was said or referenced by TurboTax regarding my 2021 Contribution or the 100% Withdraw of that Contribution.

So, there doesn't seem to be anything to Amend on my 2021 Return.

 

But, now 2022 TurboTax is saying I have a 2022 1099-R that is reporting earnings on a Contribution I made in 2021.  I did make the Withdrawal in Jan-Feb'2022 to correct the Contribution error, and, it was before the 2021 Filing Due Date.   And, there wasn't any Earnings. In fact, 2022 1099-R reported a Withdrawal Distribution of $6,898, when the initial Contribution was $7,000.   It was actually a Loss.

So, I'm sure how to navigate this.

Could it perhaps be that the 2022 1099-R is Coded wrong? And, it shouldn't be reported as "Earnings"?

Or, perhaps, I simply enter this 2022 1099-R into my 2022 Return, as I currently have, and leave my 2021 Return alone (as I stated above)?
