i used "guide me" and answered the question that YES I rolled over the IRA distribution that I had previously taken.

I rec'd the message that my distribution would NOT be taxable.

However, it did go onto my form 8606 and is showing a taxable portion on my 1040.

 

What entry do I have to make, so that is is NOT taxable?

    Was this originally taken as a RMD and you are 70 1/12 or older?

     

    If yes, then  delete the 1099-R and re-enter.  Check the box that says, "None of this distribution was a RMD" (there were no RMD's in 2020).    Then the rollover should work.

     

    If not, post back with what happens.

    When you are asked if distribution is a RMD answer “No”.  Then say all was rolled over.
