Question

Investment withdrawal that was reinvested in a CD

I'm preparing my mother-in-laws taxes for the first time.  She's 88 and withdrew 54K from an investment that she then reinvested in CD. She received a 1099 from the firm she withdrew the money from. How do I show the reinvestment in the CD on Turbo Tax so the withdrawal is not considered taxable income?

in order for this not to be investment income, the rollover would need to be deposited into another retirement account such as a Roth IRA. A CD is considered an investment account and not a retirement account thus the distribution is taxable.
