Get your taxes done using TurboTax

When you are entering the information for a 2020 Retirement Distribution related to Covid and took the option to repay over three years, you need to make sure you indicate that it was a distribution before 2021.  The only time you should see the question about a FEMA number is if you indicated it is a 2021 disaster distribution.  

 

The best way to correct this is to Delete the Form 8915 (How do I view and delete forms in TurboTax Online?)

 

Then go back to the 1099-R entries.  Make sure you enter the "Have you ever taken a disaster distribution before 2021?" 

 

 

 

If this does not work, please feel free to send a diagnostic copy so we can review.  A diasgnostic copy of your return scrubs all personal information, but sends us the data file so we can see your entries.  In TurboTax Online:  

  1. Click Tax Tools in the menu to the left.
  2. Click Tools, and then
  3. Click Share my file with Agent.
  4. A pop-up message will appear. Click OK to send the sanitized diagnostic copy to us.
