Yes, money earned from a part time job will qualify you to be able to contribute to a Roth IRA.
Please follow these steps to enter your 1099-R and conversion:
- Open your return
- Click on "Search" on the top right and type “1099-R”
- Click on “Jump to 1099-R” and enter your 1099-R as shown
- Answer questions until you get to “What Did You Do With The Money” and choose “I moved it to another retirement account”
- Then choose “I did a combination of rolling over, converting, or cashing out money.” and enter the amount next to "Amount converted to a Roth IRA account"
- Continue answering the questions in TurboTax
Be sure to enter a basis when asked if you had nondeductible contributions in your traditional IRA in the past.

Retirement tax questions
If you did the conversion to the Roth IRA in January 2021 then you will have to wait until you get your 2021 1099-R and enter it on your 2021 tax return. You will not enter this on your 2020 tax return.
