If you use Code 7 but enter the Word "Rollover" on Form 1040,

Yet the IRS takes your word for it.


A code 7 rollover does not disagree with the 1099-R at all since a code 7 1099-R is permitted to be rolled over and the word rollover next to the 1040 line 4 or line 5 is required by the IRS.   That is not disagreeing it is complying.

 

If there is box 4 withholding the 1099-R cannot be code G and the TurboTax form is sent to the IRS that will disagree with the form received from the financial institution guaranteeing a IRS audit letter.
