    Please follow these steps to enter your basis in your traditional IRA:

     

    1. Click on "Search" on the top right and type “1099-R”  
    2. Click on “Jump to 1099-R”
    3. Click "Continue" and enter the information from your 1099-R
    4. On the "Review your 1099-R info" screen click "Continue"
    5. Answer "Yes" to "Any nondeductible Contributions to your IRA?" if you had any nondeductible contributions in prior years.
