1099-R Taxable Issue

Hello Everyone,

I have a 1099-R that has a 14000 value in box 1, 2b, and 2c is checked. My return is showing 7000 as my tax basis, but it should be $0 as its all conversion to Roth

 

How can I solve this? If i enter the 1099-R as is, this continues to be the tax liability assessed

 

Thank you!

    To clarify, Was this traditional IRA to Roth

    Please clarify your question.

     

    • What is the number in Box 2a?
    • What is the code in Box 7?
    • Did you get a full deduction on the original contribution to the Traditional IRA?
      • Did you have a non-deductible portion from the Traditional IRA?

     

    Please contact us again to provide some additional details. 

     

     

     


    Box 1 and 2A are $14455.24. Box 2b is checked and the IRA/SEP/SIMPLE is as well. Distribution code is 2.

     

    In 2023 I contributed the full $6500 into a Roth. Later I realized I had to much income and recharacterized to traditional in 2024 (before filing 2023 taxes). No deductions taken for any of the contributions

     

    On top of the 1099-R I am mentioning, I do also have another for the recharacterization with 7440.63 in box 1, 0 in box 2a, unchecked box 2b, distribution code R.

     

    My 1040 shows my taxable amount on IRA distribution to be 7440.63
