@Inugasuki - can you please restate?

 

which is it? 

 

"I have Roth 401(k), and Form 1099-R is showing Box 5 exceeding Box 1.  What does this mean?  Box 2a is blank." 

 

"they don't show a negative amount for Box 2a."

 

 


I am assuming that there was a loss in the Designated Roth which would explain a zero or blank box 2a.   A loss cannot be shown with a negative number.
