Ugh, the one year I hire a CPA they filed my 8606 incorrectly.

My 2018 8606 should've had an amount on Line 14.  I have entered my 2018 basis into my 2019 return and see the conversion is now not taxable.

 

Macuser_22, thank you for your patience, clear explanations, knowledge, and quick replies! 


I agree with dmertz that yiu need to submit a corrected 8606 for 2018 and then enter the line 14 carry forward basis into 2019 to apply to the 2019 conversion when the interview asks for it.

 

[BTW - my commend addressed to dmertz is not for you and probably does not apply to your issue that would not have used that worksheet in 2018.]
