My IRA rollover is counted as untaxed income. But being counted as income is throwing me out of eligibility for the the credit for my wife's unemployment compensation due to being furloughed due to Covid. How do I get this changed?

Please review your rollover entry (see steps below). If entered correctly it will show as $0 on line 4b taxable amount with ROLLOVER next to it and it will not affect your modified adjusted gross income (MAGI). Please see IRS Unemployment Compensation Exclusion Worksheet for the calculation of MAGI (scroll down).
If your modified adjusted gross income (MAGI) is less than $150,000, then you can exclude up to $10,200 of unemployment compensation paid in 2020 from your taxable income. Amounts over $10,200 for each individual are still taxable.
You will see the UEC on line 8 and the exclusion amount as a negative number.
Please follow these steps to enter a rollover:
