Retirement tax questions
What kind of retirement account was this distribution from?
If this was a distribution from a traditional account in retirement plan other than an IRA, TurboTax would ask if this was a distribution from a qualified plan. As you proceed through editing the Form 1099-R in TurboTax, when you answer that it was from a qualified plan, the next page that TurboTax presents will show that you moved the money to another retirement account, that you did a combination of rolling over, converting or cashing out, and will show the amount that you rolled over, assuming that you entered it properly when preparing your tax return.
If the distribution was from an IRA, TurboTax won't ask if the plan was a qualified plan because the marking of the IRA/SEP/SIMPLE box indicates that its from an IRA. TurboTax will just go straight to the page showing that you moved the money to another retirement account, that you did a combination of rolling over, converting or cashing out, and will show the amount that you rolled over.
Either way, you can switch to forms mode, open the Form 1099-R and see on TurboTax's line B2 the amount that you reported as rolled over.
