Retirement tax questions
Does this mean when I rolled my 401K retirement plan money into an IRA at the end of 2018, I now have to include the 401K pre-tax rollover amount on line 6 of form 8606 as "Traditional IRA" money? This will increase the amount of deductible IRA money I have in my total since my entire 401K money was pre-tax. I have other IRA money with another provider which is about 50% non-deductible. When I do a Roth conversion from my other IRA provider, the % of the conversion which is taxable will increase since I now have more traditional IRA in the total. When it was in the 401K, I did not have to include on line 6 of Form 8606. This does not seem fair. Any way to get around it? Can you file two form 8606, one for the 401K conversion and the other for my other IRA's? Will the IRS pick up on it, if I keep the money separate?
