Retirement tax questions

If I check the box (No, none of this withdrawal was an RMD), won't I still have to pay tax on this?
How would IRS know the fund was rolled back into the account?
Does Turbo Tax still account for this as income, I don't want to pay tax on funds which was reversed.
Also the tax was not paid back and shows on 1099R, how do I use this tax as credit to apply to other income?
You enter the 1099-R as a rollover so it goes on the 1040 form line 4a as income with the word ROLLOVER next to it ans a taxable amount of 0 on line 4b.
Enter a 1099-R here:
Federal Taxes,
Wages & Income
I’ll choose what I work on (if that screen comes up),
Retirement Plans & Social Security,
IRA, 401(k), Pension Plan Withdrawals (1099-R).
OR Use the "Tools" menu (if online version under My Account) and then "Search Topics" for "1099-R" which will take you to the same place.
Be sure to choose which spouse the 1099-R is for if this is a joint tax return.
Be sure to pick the correct 1099-R type: Standard 1099-R, CSA-1099-R, CSF-1099-R, RRB-1099-R.
If this was a rollover or conversion, answer the question that you moved the money to another retirement account (can be the same account). The screen will open up with choices of where it was moved.
[NOTE: When you get to the "Your 1099-R Entries" screen where you can add another 1099-R, use "continue" to keep going as there are additional interview questions after that screen in most cases. You can always return as shown above.]
It will show as income on the summary screen which shows gross income, not taxable income.
The income will be reported on line 4a on the 1040 form with the word “ROLLOVER” next to it if it was a rollover.
The taxable amount will go on line 4b. In the case of a rollover, that amount will be zero.
