Retirement tax questions

If you enter a rollover into TurboTax it will put "ROLLOVER" as an explanation next to it on Form 1040.

 

 

To enter a rollover please follow these steps:

  1. Login to your TurboTax Account 
  2. Click on "Search" on the top right and type “1099-R”
  3. Click on “Jump to 1099-R” and enter your 1099-R
  4. Continue "Tell us if you moved the money through a rollover or conversion" and select "I rolled over some or all of it to an IRA or other retirement account within the time limits (normally 60 days)"
  5. Continue answering the questions.

 

If you have code G in box 7 the questions might look a little different:

  1. On the "Did you move this money from a 401(k) to a Roth 401(k)?" screen answer "No" (you get this question if it was from a 401k)
  2. On the "Did you move the money to a Roth IRA?" screen answer "No"
