Hey, can somebody guide me on how or where to enter my IRA roll-over in TurboTax so that it will show up on Form 1040 Line 5a. I know it is not taxable. In the past turbotax captured it automatically from the documents I uploaded. This year it doesn't.

    If a direct trustee to trustee transfer you will not get a 1099-R and in that case no 1099-R will be issued and no reporting is required.

    @jannethu form 5498 is for informational purposes only and is not reported on your tax return.
