8606 tax form does not populate Line 13

8606 tax form does not populate Line 13 instead populates on Line 14 as taxable. It doesnt treat Line 4 as 0 and so it doesnt subtract Line 3 from 4 on Line 5 and leaves it blank.

To clarify, did you make Traditional IRA contribution in 2025 for 2024? If did not make the contribution in 2025 but you show an amount on line 4 of Form 8606 then you will need to go back to the IRA contribution interview and edit your entry.

1. Click on "Search" on the top right and type “IRA contributions” 
2. Click on “Jump to IRA contributions"
3. Select “traditional IRA”
4. Answer “No” to “Is This a Repayment of a Retirement Distribution?”
5. Delete the entry under "Tell us how much of the above total contribution for 2024 you contributed between Jan 1, 2025 and April 15th, 2025."
