I did a back door Roth in 2025.  I converted 8K  (7K plus 1K allowable for being over 50).  TT is showing the 1K as being taxable when it should not be.  where do I find the right prompt/question to trigger the 1K to being non taxable as allowed for being over 50?

    Be sure that you entered the total $8,000 contribution in the Deductions & Credits section, indicating that it is nondeductible by checking the "Yes, make part of my IRA contribution nondeductible". 

    If that does not work, please post here again.
