For 2019 backdoor ROTH IRA conversion, I was little late and that transaction happened on Jan 3rd 2020. So, I don’t have 10990-R form.

How can I add backdoor ROTH IRA conversion?

 

I tried follow different steps from this forum, but it’s bit confusing when it’s asking me to add 1099-R form. Appreciate your help.

    You will report it on your 2020 tax return next year.   If converted after Dec. 31, 2019 it is a 2020 conversion.   Be sure to report any 2019 nondeductible Traditional IRA contributions on a 2019 8606 form that you will need.

    I think the advice is wrong, you can still contribute to a back door roth and put it on your taxes before filing

    The question and answers in this thread is about a *2019* tax return.   The question was asked a year ago.
