1040 Line 5b greater than 1099-R box 2a
I completed multiple rollovers of after-tax 401k contributions to a Roth IRA last year. The 1099-R shows the appropriate value in box 2a (Taxable amount) for the increase in value before I completed the rollovers (around $200). I expected the Form 1040 line 5b to show the value from my 1099-R box 2a. However, it is showing a larger number, which looks like box 2a plus the difference between box 1 (Gross distribution) and box 5 (Employee contributions). The overall impact to my taxes is small, but I wanted to understand if this is correct (or is a bug in the TurboTax logic).
