I made an IRA withdrawls of 25,000 and repaid 12,500 within 60 days. Reviewing my return to file now shows 20,000 of that is taxable . What causes this error ?

Please follow the instructions below:

1. Login to your TurboTax Account 
2. Click "Take Me To My Return"
3. Click "Federal" from the left side of your screen
4. Scroll down and click "Start or Edit/Add" next to "IRA, 401(k), Pension Plan Withdrawals (1099-R)" 
5. Answer "Yes" to the question "Did You Have Any of These Types of Income?"
6. Click "I'll Type it Myself"
7. Choose "Form 1099-R, Withdrawal of Money from 401(k) Retirement Plans, Pensions, IRAs, etc."
8. Click "Continue" and enter the information from your 1099-R
9. Answer questions until you get to “What Did You Do With The Money” and choose “I moved it to another retirement account (or returned it into the same account)”
10. Then choose “I did a combination of rolling over, converting or cashing out the money.”
11. Enter the amount in the field next to “Amount rolled over to another (or back to the same) retirement account”

 Please be aware that the whole distribution will show as income on the summary screen which shows gross income, not taxable income. To verify that the entry is correct please look at form 1040 line 4b (taxable amount), only the amount that was not rolled over will show here.
