While you should have received a Form 1099-R reporting your rollover, if you didn’t, or if you failed to report the IRA when you initially filed your tax return, you can report your 401K rollover on a Form 1040X: Amended Return. Then, complete and file your amended return.
How do I report a 1099-R rollover?
Look for Form 1099-R in the mail from your plan administrator at the end of the year. Your rollover is reported as a distribution, even when it is rolled over into another eligible retirement account. Report your gross distribution on line 15a of IRS Form 1040. This amount is shown in Box 1 of the 1099-R.

How to report a rollover to Turbo Tax?
I have a traditional IRA rollover but did not receive a 1099R to report it. My financial institution will only send my regular 1099INT. How do I handle this? Where exactly in Turbo Tax is this entered/handled? When reading the 1099R instructions it does not sound like the appropriate place to report a rollover. June 7, 2019 3:02 PM
Is there a 1099-R form for Vanguard?
Have contacted the indirect IRA rollover destination Vanguard; they tell me they send out a form 5498 in May, confirming the rollover. They say no 1099-R will come from them, as that form is only for distributions.
What to do if you do not receive Form 1099-R?
I recommend contacting your broker/administrator to verify if the Form 1099-R will be issued. However, if the direct rollover was made as a trustee-to-trustee transfer involving no payment or distribution to you, you should not be receiving Form 1099-R and there is nothing to report on your tax return.
