Retirement tax questions

to show the grand total of distributions on Line 4a and make the IRS happy, include all 1099-Rs.

 

the recharacterization is a contribution, obviously not taxable.

 

assuming your Traditional IRA was empty before,

the conversion to a Roth is not taxable if the contribution above was marked non-deductible.

Net result : no tax, line 4b should be zero.

 

if you had money in the Traditional IRA before, you can't do a backdoor Roth so there would be tax on the Roth conversion, prorated against your IRA  basis.
