TurboTax does not support a single 1099-R going to two different destinations. The 1099-R needs to be broken into two.
Assuming that the box 7 code is a G and the after tax money is in box 5, here is the procedure:
(If not, post back with the box 7 code and the box 2a and 5 amounts.)
TurboTax does not directly support a single 1099-R going to two different destinations.
What you must do is split the 1099-R into two 1099-Rs.
For the amount rolled to the Traditional IRA.
1) In box 1 use the original 1099-R box 1 minus the box 5 amount.
2) Box 2a = 0.
3) Box 5 = blank.
4) Box 7 = G.
5) Answer NO to the two interview questions that ask about a Roth - the default is a Traditional IRA.
For the amount rolled to the Roth IRA.
1) In box 1 enter the original box 5 amount.
2) Box 2a - 0.
3) Box 5 = original box 5 amount.
4) Box 7 = G.
5) Answer NO to the first interview question about a 401(k) Roth and YES to the rollover to a Roth IRA.
That should properly report the 1099-R. The box totals of the two 1099-R should equal the amounts on the original 1099-R.
Nothing about splitting into two 1099-R's go on a tax return - the IRS only gets the dollar amounts on the 1040 form. |
