In August of 2015, we did a Traditional to Roth conversion of about $23k. In October of the same year, we recharacterized it back to Traditional (including a small amount of gains), expecting that would wipe out the tax liability.
We just got a bill for taxes on the conversion.
Before I go nuts, I was correct that the recharacterization should wipe out the taxes, right? I don't know if I should call Fidelity or just write a note to the IRS with copies of the (cryptic to me) Fidelity statements from that year.
