1099 R distribution to IRA

My company terminated our pension plan. I received a lump sum fee which I rolled directly to a managed IRA.  I received a 1099R reflecting the distribution indicating a G code.  The distribution was directed to the managing company.  When entered into Turbotax it is reflected in the total income.  Is this correct?

It will show as income on the summary screen which shows gross income, not taxable income.

The IRS requires reporting all income on a *income* tax return - taxable and not-taxable.

The income will be reported on line 4a (or 4c) and 4b (or 4d) on the 1040 form with the word “ROLLOVER” next to it if it was a rollover.

The taxable amount will go on the 1040 line 4b (or 4d). In the case of a rollover, nothing goes on 4b (or 4d).
