How do I report a rollover IRA distribution in Turbo Tax? I withdrew IRA funds but redeposited them within 60 day to avoid tax penalty. Thank you

The IRS guidelines say to write Rollover on Line 16 of the 1040 to avoid tax penalties. How do I do this in Turbo Tax? Thank you

After you enter your 1099-R, look for the screen "Tell us if you moved the money through a rollover or conversion" - when you enter the amount, TurboTax will report the ROLLOVER on the tax return.

In general, you may repay all or part of the amount of a coronavirus-related distribution to an eligible retirement plan, provided that you complete the repayment within three years after the date that the distribution was received. If you repay a coronavirus-related distribution, the distribution will be treated as though it were repaid in a direct trustee-to-trustee transfer so that you do not owe federal income tax on the distribution.

MaryK4, where is the "screen "Tell us if you moved the money through a rollover or conversion" - when you enter the amount, TurboTax will report the ROLLOVER on the tax return."?  I have a very similar situation and I have entered and deleted the information from my 1099-R form numerous times and have yet to find this screen or options. 

I've done my taxes with Turbotax for years and I am at the point where I feel my only recourse for this issue is to make an appointment for an in-person tax preparation service. 

Please assist! 

Thank you!!

You would first enter under

"Retirement Plan and Social Security"

"IRA, 401(k), Pension Plan Withdrawals (1099-R)"

Yes

"I'll type it in myself"

"Form 1099-R, withdrawal of money from 401(k) retirement plans, pensions, IRSs etc."

Choose the owner of the 1099-R if applicable

Continue

Code in Box 7 should be 1

Continue through several screens to "What Did You Do With The Money? 

Select the top option "moved the money to another retirement account" 

Choose "Rolled over" from the drop-down if that was what you did. 

The screen may look different depending on whether you use Desktop or Online
