Deductions & credits

to summarize the path forward:

amend your 2023 return by submitting 2023 Form 8606 (see above)

 

Line 1       6,500

Line 2       18,000

Line 3       24,500

Line 14    24,500

 

The assumption here is that no deduction was ever taken for any of these Traditional IRA contributions.

 

The submitted 2023 Form 8606 becomes your most recently filed Form when preparing 2024 tax return.

You didn't say if you are making a non-deductible contribution for 2024.

If no, 2024 Form 8606 is not needed.

Tax transcript for 2023:

irrelevant if you know the prior years basis needs correction.
