Thanks Dana(B27),

 

Followed your instruction, on box 7 I enter:

      J - Early distribution from a Roth IRA

      P - Return of contribution taxable in 2020

 

Why it is the year 2020?  Should it be 'Return of contribution taxable in 2021'?  I made contribution on 1/11/2021 and withdraw the money on 3/22/2022.


if you made the contribution on 1/11/21 then that was before the due date of the 2020 tax return so it was applied as a 2020 contribution made in 2021 so the return of contribution is taxable in the tax year that it was for - 2020.
