Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Did you request the return of contribution plus earning with your financial institution? If yes, the you should get get a 2025 Form 1099-R in 2026 with code P and 1. This Form 1099-R will have to be included on your 2024 tax return and you have two options: 

 

  • You can wait until you receive the 2025 Form 1099-R in 2026 and amend your 2024 return or
  • You can report it now in your 2024 return and ignore the 1099-R when it comes unless there is Box 4 Federal Tax withholding and/or Box 14 State withholding. Then you must enter the 2025 Form 1099-R into the 2025 tax return since the withholding is reported in the year that the tax was withheld. The 2025 code P will not do anything to change the income in the 2025 tax return income but the withholding will be applied to 2025.

 

To create a Form 1099-R in your 2024 return please follow the steps below:

 

  1. Login to your TurboTax Account 
  2. Click on the "Search" on the top right and type “1099-R” 
  3. Click on “Jump to 1099-R”
  4. Answer "Yes" to "Did you get a 1099-R in 2024?"
  5. Select "I'll type it in myself"
  6. Box 1 enter total distribution (contribution minus loss)
  7. Box 2 enter $0
  8. Box 7 enter P and 1
  9. Check the "IRA/ SEP/ SIMPLE" box
  10. Click "Continue"
  11. On the "Which year on Form 1099-R" screen say that this is a 2025 1099-R.

Since you had no earning this won't be taxable but TurboTax will add an explanation statement to your return.
