I have received a 1099-R with a code R. This was due to a recharachterization I did in Apr 2018 for the tax year of 2017. The money I originally contributed to my IRA was after tax money and some of it was deductible but the $300 which was not deductible I recharachterized for the tax year of 2017. The 1099-R is showing 2018 and that is what confusing me. Why is it saying 2018 if I did this in the before tax deadline of 2017?
Also when I input it as 2018 in the system it' asking me to amend my 2017, why?
