I have a client who rolled over a qualified plan so they have a 1099-R but the client ended up depositing the check to a Roth IRA and not a Traditional IRA. The 1099-R is coded as a non-taxable rollover but because of the deposit to the Roth IRA, it is definitely taxable. My question is that I do not know how to change this in Pro-Connect to have the return represent that income. The 1099-R has a $0.00 in box 2 (taxable amount) but do I just enter the Roth conversion amount in that section?
You can’t rollover pretax dollars into a Roth without paying tax on the money first. The distribution is taxable so enter the distribution in box 2 as taxable.

Perfect! That is what I suspected but I didn't know if it was ok to report that differently than what was reported to the IRS on the 1099R. Thank you so much!
