Details below:
I make more than the individual ROTH IRA limit so I was planning to use this backdoor.
May-2019, I opened a new Traditional IRA Account and Funded $6000 (maximum) using my after tax money.
The very next day, I converted the full $6000 to the ROTH IRA.
Now when I try to enter the details on 1099-R it seems to be adding tax on the $6000 which was already taxed from my payroll. Should I even be declaring this on 1099-R?
Be sure to enter all contributions before the 1099R. Please follow these steps, How do I enter a backdoor Roth IRA conversion?
