Turbotax marked rollover on form 1040

Form 1040 has rollover checked on box 5b. Interestingly enough, it did not last year. Is this correct? I did not rollover any funds between accounts. I did have after tax contributions with the Microsoft rollover though (I also had those in 2023 though and it did not say rollover).

No, if you did not rollover your retirement distribution, the word ROLLOVER should not be printed on line 5b.   You should delete the 1099-R and re-enter it, and carefully answer the follow-up question.   According to your return, some portion or all of your distribution was put back into a qualified retirement plan.   Since that is not the case, you will need to remove that distribution and re-enter it without indicating there was a rollover.

Where do I enter a 1099-R?

Do I answer yes to this question for Roth In-plan Conversion if I have it set to convert my after-tax contributions?

 

Did you move this money from a 401(k) to a Roth 401(k)?
This includes rollovers from a regular 401(k), 403(b) or 457(b) plan to a designated Roth 401(k), 403(b) or 457(b) plan.
Yes, I moved the money to a Roth 401(k), Roth 403(b), or a 457(b) plan
No, I didn't.

Also, even if I write No to all the questions, TurboTax wrote rollover on it.
