Backdoor Roth IRA conversion for 2018 & 2019 converted in 2019

 In Jan 2019 I made two non deductible contributions to Traditional IRA; one for 2018 =$6500 and 2nd for $2019 = $7000 (I am 60 years + ). The next day  I then transferred $13,500 to Roth IRA for backdoor conversion.

On my 2018 return, In TurboTax I reported $6,500 as non-deductible Traditional IRA contribution. I did not deal with Roth Conversion on my 2018 return as I did not have a 1099-R.

Now I am filing 2019 return. I have a 1099R showing distribution of $13,500 (the 1099-R has box 2b checked (Taxable amount not determined); Distribution code is 7 and IRA/SEP/Simple box is checked.

I am unable to figure out how to enter this in TurboTax - no matter what I do, I get excess tax liability. Can some one guide me how to enter 2018 as well 2019 Roth conversion in my 2019 return?

Thank you
