401K In Service Distribution to both IRA and Roth

In 2019, I took an in service distribution from my 401K of ~50K.  $30K was pretax and rolled to an IRA.  $20K was after tax and rolled to a Roth IRA.  My 1099R has 50K in box 1, 20K in box 5 and type G in box 7.  When I enter the data for the 1099R and answer the questions, it indicates that I owe Federal taxes.   I was expecting to owe $0 taxes since I rolled over the money to IRA and Roth funds.   I'm guessing I'm answering the questions incorrectly?

 

a) Is this 1099 reporting a rollover of funds from a 401k to a designated Roth 401k?

I answer No since I rolled to a Roth fund that wasn't a 401k Roth fund.

 

b) For rollovers to a Roth IRA, addition info is needed.  For rollovers to all other types of accounts answer no.

I answer Yes since 20K went to an Roth IRA.(Note if I answer No I owe $0)

 

c) Did you make any after-tax contributions to 401K?  This would be contributions by you made yourself, rather than by your company on your behalf (this is rare)?

This is confusing.   In 2019, I did may After Tax but via the Company not directly.   Since this is rare,  I assume having my company take money out of my paycheck and placing it in 401K for me must be an answer of No.

 

I look at the forms and B5 has the X that the entire B4 value of 50K has been given to Roth IRA.   That is not correct but I don't see any question that asks me how much went to IRA vs Roth.    Doesn't the 1099 R indicate that with the Box 1 and Box 5 values?

 

Am I answering the questions right?   Or has the tax law changed?   Or does Turbo Tax have a bug?
