Do I need to enter my Fidelity 5498 IRA form?

[stemps]

do I need to account for any activity in my IRA for 2016? I believe I funded it in 2015, and have just watched it over 2016.

You don't need to enter information from your Form 5498 (IRA Contribution Information) into TurboTax - generally if you had reportable IRA contributions which you had made during the tax year, they would be reported to you on Form 1099-R

There is no filing requirement for Form 5498 - just retain it for your records.
