Retirement tax questions

Non-qualified accounts are not eligible for rollover.  A non-qualified insurance policy or annuity can be exchanged through a process called a section 1035 exchange, reported with code 6 in box 7 of the Form 1099-R, but otherwise its a taxable distribution and an independent purchase of a new policy or annuity.  TurboTax automatically treats a code 6 Form 1099-R as nontaxable because a code 6 Form 1099-R will always have a zero in box 2a as the taxable amount.
