Retirement tax questions

Do you mean they took the taxes out when you converted it to the ROTH IRA?

You didn’t actually pay the tax or the 10% penalty (you pay a 10% early withdrawal penalty if you are under 59 ½). You had taxes withheld like from you paycheck. You still have to enter the whole gross amount (before taxes were withheld) with your other income to figure out the total tax (and it may put you into a higher tax bracket) and then the withholding is subtracted from the total tax to figure your refund or tax due. The Gross amount shows up on 1040 line 4a or 5a and the taxable amount on 4b/5b. The withholding will show up on 1040 line 25b.

 

And by increasing your income you may lose some credits like the EIC. You can lose like up to 50% of it for taxes and penalties for federal and state.

 

And check if you have the right taxable amount showing up.  Check 1040 line 4b.
