My taxable income is not increasing after adding the 2020 Corona virus distribution in turbot tax. Is this correct? 

Not sure what I am doing wrong. 


You have to enter the 2nd year of the 2020 distribution in both boxes for the type of distribution received in 2020.

 

If the 2020 distribution was from an account that was Not an IRA

Enter 1/3 of the amount from the 2020 distribution in both boxes for Line 9

2020 Form 8915E, line 9, if you checked the box on that line, enter 0

2020 Form 8915E Line 9 

 

If the 2020 distribution was from an IRA account

Enter 1/3 of the amount from the 2020 distribution in both boxes for Line 17

2020 Form 8915E, line 17, if you checked the box on that line, enter 0

2020 Form 8915E Line 17 

 

Do not enter anything in the other boxes, leave them blank (empty)

 

The 1/3 of the amount from the 2020 distribution will be entered on the 2021 Form 1040 Line 4b if from an IRA or on Line 5b if from a retirement plan other than an IRA
