Get your taxes done using TurboTax
Do not enter anything in your 2021 taxes if you withdrew excess Roth before the due date of your 2021 tax return if you had a loss on the excess contribution.
Since there is a loss on the excess contribution, Box 2a should be $0.00. Reporting these $0 earnings has no impact on your 2021 tax return at all. If you wait till next January for the actual Form 1099-R to arrive, there is nothing to amend for your 2021 tax return either because there was no earnings and no 10% penalty applies.
You can just ignore the 1099-R next year unless there are federal and/or state income taxes withheld. The JP code tells IRS that the 1099-R is the withdrawal of an excess contribution from a Roth IRA by the due date, and the zero in Box 2a tells the IRS there is no income to report.
