IRA rollover question

I had an IRA with Schwab that I closed out and rolled the money over to my Vanguard IRA. I got a check from Schwab and sent it to Vanguard within the 60 day time period for rolloevers (Schwab wanted to charge me money to eletronically transfer the money, that's why I did the check).

Anyway, Schwab sends me a 1099 form for my taxes. Vanguard will send me the 5498 form in April saying I did the rolloever within the 60 day window. So what do I do on my taxes? I won't get the Vanguard form before I file.

Will the IRS think I just took my Schwab money? How would I prove that I rolled it over--does the IRS take my word for it?

No, I don't use an accountant. I use Turbo Tax.

paula,
great timing, i was pming philly accountants. yes, the irs does take your word for it. by the time they check it much later(up to a year) they'll have vanguards 5498. 8)

:wag:
I know there's a space on the 1040 to put in an IRA distribution but is there a space to put in "I put the money into another IRA?" Or do I leave the IRA distribution box blank?
yes, on the front page of 1040, there is a line 15a that says IRA distributions, and then when it asks 'taxable amount' you enter -0- on line 15b 8)
