How is my IRA contribution reflected on my return and in my refund since I don't report my 5498? My 5498 was allegedly reported by Ameriprise. Thanks.

I failed to enter my IRA contribution on my tax forms and have already submitted my forms and received my refund, minus the amount I could have received from the IRA, of course.  Can I submit an amended form at this point?  What steps should I take if so?   Thanks!

The 5498 is the FMV at 12/31/of year you are looking at and also lists contributions for the year.  You get a 5498 annually, regardless if you make an IRA contribution or not.

If you did make an IRA contrbution for the tax year, then you enter it as follows:
