You should complete Form 8606 and include $6,500 for the amount of your Non-Deductible Traditional IRA Contribution.

To trigger Form 8606, follow these steps:

  1. Open (continue) your return if it's not already open.
  2. Inside TurboTax, search for this exact phrase, including the comma: 8606, nondeductible ira contributions
  3. Select the "Jump to" link in the search results.
  4. Proceed through the IRA interview, answering questions as you go.
  5. When you reach the screen Any nondeductible contributions to [taxpayer's] IRA? answer Yes, then continue through the interview questions.
