Phaseout rules say I should not have contributed to 2012 Roth IRA?

Ok, so what next? Do I show the contributions? and, do I show any income for 2012? Can I just recharacterize to traditional IRA(non-deductible)?



The easiest thing is to recharacterize to a nondeductible IRA. If you just withdraw the contributions there is tax on the earnings. 

In which year do I report the earnings?  2012 or 2013?
