As Michelle says.

Recharacterization is treated as contribution made to the other account so long as it is a trustee-to-trustee transfer and all the other conditions are met.

408A(d)(6)Taxpayer may make adjustments before due date.—

408A(d)(6)(A)In general.—

Except as provided by the Secretary, if, on or before the due date for any taxable year, a taxpayer transfers in a trustee-to-trustee transfer any contribution to an individual retirement plan made during such taxable year from such plan to any other individual retirement plan, then, for purposes of this chapter, such contribution shall be treated as having been made to the transferee plan (and not the transferor plan).

408A(d)(6)(B)Special rules.—

408A(d)(6)(B)(i)Transfer of earnings.—

Subparagraph (A) shall not apply to the transfer of any contribution unless such transfer is accompanied by any net income allocable to such contribution.

408A(d)(6)(B)(ii)No deduction.—

Subparagraph (A) shall apply to the transfer of any contribution only to the extent no deduction was allowed with respect to the contribution to the transferor plan.

408A(d)(6)(B)(iii)Conversions.—

Subparagraph (A) shall not apply in the case of a qualified rollover contribution to which subsection (d)(3) applies (including by reason of subparagraph (C) thereof).

In other words, the $250 originally contributed to ROTH IRA but subsequently recharacterized will be treated as contribution made directly to the Traditional IRA.  Together with the other $6,500, F.8606, Line 1 will report $6,750.

Recharacterization is specifically excepted for, F.8506, Part III.  That's why nothing is populated.

In terms of input, you will make your entries on two different screens, as you probably already know:

• IRA Contributions: Deductions > Adjustments to Income, on the Retirement tab; and
• Distribution from ROTH IRA: Income > Pensions, IRAs (1099-R)

These are the entries you will need to make for IRA Contributions:

• Recharacterizations: I find that this field doesn't work properly for ProConnect Tax and would ignore it altogether;
• IRA contributions (1=maximum deduction): Since Recharacterizations doesn't function as it should, enter the entire $6,750 so that this will flow through to F.8606, Line 1;
• Contributions made (letter use only): Enter 250 so that your client letter will remind your client to only make a contribution of $6,500 by April 18.  If your client has already made the full contribution, you should then enter 6,750, so that the IRA contribution paragraph will not be included in the client letter..
