How to make a Roth IRA conversion tax deductible, while also reporting a recharacterization

[ramsgusom]

2 separate events

- 401k rolled over to traditional IRA, and then converted to Roth IRA

- 2018 Roth IRA contribution that was then recharacterized into a traditional lRA

Turbotax is not letting me pay tax on the 401k --> Roth IRA amount. The 2018 recharacterization is being deducted from the 401k amount.

You should have two 1099R's and only the 2nd one Traditional IRA to Roth IRA will be taxable income.

Then for contribution of IRA list it as a Traditional IRA contribution and not a Roth.
