You will answer "No" since you removed the excess before the due date of the 2023 return.
Generally the earning are taxable on your 2023 return but you didn't have any earnings if box 2a shows $0.
The recharacterization should have been reported on your 2023 return with these steps:
- Login to your TurboTax Account
- Click on "Search" on the top right and type “IRA contributions”
- Click on “Jump to IRA contributions"
- Select “Roth IRA”
- Answer ‘Yes” on the “Roth IRA Contribution” screen
- Answer “No” to “Is This a Repayment of a Retirement Distribution
- Enter the Roth contribution amount
- Answer “Yes” to the recharacterized question on the “Switch from a Roth To a Traditional IRA?” screen and enter the contribution amount (no earnings or losses) on the next screen.
- TurboTax will ask for an explanation statement where it should be stated that the original $xxx.xx plus $xxx.xx earnings (or loss) were recharacterized.
