Retirement tax questions
@esarnc , I assume that the amount form box 5 of the original Form 1099-R is the amount rolled over to the Roth IRA. For the first Form 1099-R, that's correct. You'll answer No when asked if you rolled it over to a Roth 401(k) or Roth 403(b), then answer Yes when asked if this was rolled over to a Roth IRA.
For the second Form 1099-R, Everything should be the same as the original except that box 1 should contain the difference between the amounts in boxes 1 and 5 and box 5 should contain a zero. Nothing goes in box 6 or any of the other dollar-amount boxes. For this one you'll answer No to both question that ask if it was rolled over to any kind of Roth account.
The code for direct rollover of a 401(k) is G, not D. (Code D would indicate a distribution that is not eligible for rollover.)
