I'm trying to figure out how to report my backdoor roth conversion through the step by step menu. I entered the 1099-R under the wage and income section. I answered the question about taking the distribution and converting it fully to a roth ira.
Now i'm in the deductions and credits section. Under the IRA section it already shows my contribution from the wage and income section. Do I need to go in there and add my roth ira? I'm assuming now because I technically contributed to a traditional ira? If i check the roth ira then it tells me i over contributed. When i go through the forms i get even more confused because some of the sections where it mentions conversion to a roth are blank.
please help.
