Retirement tax questions

"it" refers to the subject of the paragraph - the 1099-R.    Depending if you choose to make the recharactorized Traditional IRA contribution deductible or non-deductible  then  either a 1040 Schedule 1 with the deductible contribution on line 19 or if non-deductible, a 8606 form with the non-deductible contribution on line 1, gets sent to the  IRS along with your explanation statement as mentioned above.
