Retirement tax questions

If you don't have records of your Roth IRA contributions or withdrawals, here are a few steps to help you track them down:

  1. Check your account statements: Your Roth IRA custodian should have sent you annual statements.
  2. Look for Form 5498: This form reports your IRA contributions to the IRS and is sent to you by your IRA custodian each year.
  3. Log into your IRS account and see if there is a copy of From 5498
  4. Log into your online investment account: Most investment platforms keep detailed records of your contributions and withdrawals.
