My client (61 years old) took a distribution from his 401K under the CARES Act. He deposited the proceeds into an IRA immediately. He received a 1099-R, showing this distribution as fully taxable. How do I show that funds went into an IRA, so he's not taxed on this distribution.

On the 1099-R input form, scroll down to page 2 - to the section called Rollovers, Roth Conversions, Roth Rollovers, and Recharacterizations.  Put a check in the box B1 - Entire distribution rolled over.

Was there withholding? Did he send the gross to the Traditional IRA account?
