I made a $6K after-tax contribution to a traditional IRA account in 2019, intending to do a backdoor Roth conversion. However, I forgot to convert the fund to my Roth IRA. The fund amount increased to $7,500 in May 2021, when I finally moved it ($7.5K) to a Roth IRA account. I received a 2021 1099-R with Gross Distribution of $7,500 earlier this year.

To enter the 1099-R conversion:
