Retirement tax questions

To clarify, did you have any pre-tax fund in your traditional/SEP/SIMPLE IRAs? If yes, then the pro-rata rule applies. This means that with each distribution/ conversion you will have a taxable and nontaxable part. You can see the remaining basis on line 14 of Form 8606, this basis can be carried forward. 

Also, if you had any earnings before you converted the funds then these will be taxable on line 4b of Form 1040.

To confirm, you made a $7,000 contribution for 2024 in 2024 and converted the $7,000 in 2024 and have a 2024 Form 1099-R showing the $7,000?

Please review the TurboTax Online  instructions below.

To enter the nondeductible contribution to the traditional IRA for 2024:

1. Login to your TurboTax Account 
2. Click on "Search" on the top right and type “IRA contributions” 
3. Click on “Jump to IRA contributions"
4. Select “traditional IRA”
5. Answer “No” to “Is This a Repayment of a Retirement Distribution?”
6. Enter the amount you contributed of $7,000
7. Answer “No” to the recharacterized question on the “Did You Change Your Mind?” screen
8. Answer the next questions until you get to “Any Nondeductible Contributions to Your IRA?” and select “Yes” if you had a nondeductible contribution before this tax year.
9. Enter your basis in the Traditional IRA from your 2023 Form 8606 line 14 (if you had a basis in the prior year)
10. On the “Choose Not to Deduct IRA Contributions” screen choose “Yes, make part of my IRA contribution nondeductible” and enter the amount (if you have a retirement plan at work and are over the income limit it will be nondeductible automatically and you only get a warning and then a screen saying $0 is deductible).
