If I contributed 1000 dollars over the last 5 years but withdrew more than that how do I answer the question about Roth IRA contributions prior to 2016

[Critter]

don't worry about what you took out ... the program needs to know what you put in

Enter the amount that you contributed for years prior to 2016 minus any amounts distributed in years prior to 2016 (but do not enter less than zero).
