Retirement tax questions

By adding your user name here you should see the answer more quickly @mollyjack8478.  

 

1. RMD full distribution in January and returned in August: Delete the 1099-R and re-enter.  Answer the RMD question that "None of this distribution  was a RMD",  because is was not - there was no RMD.  Then you should get the screen that allows you to rollover (roll it back).

2. Distribution from IRA rolled into a Roth IRA in December: My suggestion is to add a second 1099R with the same payer information, the second one for the this distribution.
