Yes, you will need to amend your 2021 tax return. The earnings in box 2a are taxable on your 2021 tax return.
You will need to enter the 2022 Form 1099-R with codes P and J on your 2021 amended tax return:
- Click "Federal Taxes" on the top and select "Wages & Income"
- Click "I'll choose what to work on"
- Scroll down and click "Start" next to "IRA, 401(k), Pension Plan (1099-R)"
- Answer "Yes" to the question "Did You Have Any of These Types of Income?"
- Enter Form 1099-R
- On the "Which year on Form 1099-R" screen say that this is a 2023 Form 1099-R.
- Click "Continue" after all 1099-R are entered and answer all the questions.
- Continue until "Did you use your IRA to pay for any of these expenses?" screen and enter the amount of earnings under "Another reason" if you are over 59 1/2 (if you are under 59 1/2 click "Continue")
Please be aware, code P will say in the drop-down menu "Return of contribution taxable in 2020" but you can ignore that since the follow-up question will tell TurboTax that it will be taxable in 2021.
