Retirement tax questions

If you made no traditional IRA distributions or Roth conversions that year and you are not claiming a nondeductible traditional IRA contribution for that year, there should be no Form 8606 for that year.  The amount from line 14 of the a Form 8606 just carries forward to line 2 of the next Form 8606 that you do have reason to file whatever year that might be.
