One additional item to consider with this is that you may have to file your return by mail. Although things could change for future filing years, presently the IRS does not accept e-filed returns when withholding is equal to or greater than half of the distribution amount on a 1099-R. The taxpayer must file by mail and submit a paper copy of the 1099-R showing this withholding.
