Hello Rick,

You were right on. I'd love to blame it on a ridiculously busy end of tax season. This situation happened while I was working Saturday and Sunday to finish off returns for several late arriving clients and when my error on a W-2 came up and bit me, frustration took hold.

Had this occurred earlier I would have taken an alternative approach and adjusted the IRA to the amount that was deductible after the correction to the W-2. Whereas I didn't have time I went into tilt mode.

I've never been disappointed when seeking aid from the Lacerte Community. The Amended was Amended to include the Form 8606 and all is well in the world again. I wish you the best Rick.

Bob
