I have same question. before 2016,I made nondeductible traditional IRA 4 years total $16000. I kept Form 8606. Last year I made a conversion to roth IRA. I follow the step i was seen in AnswerXchange "A Backdoor ROTH conversion consists of two parts" send part.--The non-taxable distribution. But I still need pay tax! How can I think that? because after I finished get,I need oay tax, for example, $6600. But if I delete  my 1099R form which include $16000, I need pay 2872. So I think I still pay tax for my  non-taxable distribution.
