You should get a Form 1099-R from your IRA custodian which reports the rollover. To enter the information, follow these steps:

  • Open or continue your return.

  • Navigate to the 1099-R section:

    • TurboTax Online/Mobile: Go to 1099-R.

    • TurboTax Desktop: Search for 1099-R and select the Jump to link.

  • Continue through the screens to import or enter your 1099-R form.

  • When asked Tell us if you moved the money through a rollover or conversion select I rolled over some or all of it to an IRA or other retirement account within the time limits (normally 60 days) and select Continue.

  • On the next screen, Did you roll over all of this (Box 1) to another retirement account? answer Yes, I rolled over to an IRA or other retirement account (or returned it to the same account) and select Continue.

If taxes were withheld in box 4 of your form, they'll either be added to your refund or applied to your tax liability.
