I paid someone to calculate my taxes and they told me we have a refund but also need to pay more than $2,000. Can you review the form and clarify if we owe anything or if we are due a refund?

I only filed an Indiana state tax return. Will I get the Indiana stimulus payment? I am 68 years old, on social security disability, and made around $14,000 this year. I have no minor dependents.

I have a Roth IRA that I received from my ex-husband in 2003. I haven't contributed to it since, but I would like to take money out without being penalized. I have a tax record from 2001 showing a conversion from an IRA to a Roth, and I know the amount we paid taxes on during that conversion. Can I use this to prove the basis? My ex-husband no longer has his Roth, so I can't get records from the fund manager for him anymore. How do I figure out the basis (vs distributions) from the initial $13,000 conversion and the $9,000 I received in the divorce settlement? Can I take $8,000 out without penalty?
